Pretty much all of us have some kind of inconsistency, or ‘aberration’ with the shape or surface of our eyes. Think of the aberrations as tiny imperfections in eye shape, functionality, or consistency that deviate the normal path of light reaching the retina.
Common aberrations such as myopia (shortsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), or astigmatism are easily diagnosed – and corrected – with spectacles, contact lenses, or laser eye surgery.
