With astigmatic eyes or astigmatism the cornea or lens of your eye is misshapen somewhat which causes light to focus unevenly on your retina.
When this happens it results in distorted or blurred vision.
Astigmatism can also be caused by your eyelids putting too much pressure on the cornea.
People with astigmatism see blurry objects such blurry words, blurry road signs and anything else that is in their field of vision.
Blurred vision is the most common symptom of astigmatism.
People with astigmatism most often also see glares or halos around lights.
To permanently cure and correct astigmatism you will need to have eye surgery which is the only way to permanently cure your astigmatism.

Astigmatism can cause dizziness, lightheadedness and headaches and squinting as a result of the blurriness that results from astigmatism.
Generally, eyes with 1.5 diopters of astigmatism or more require glasses or correction.
For people who have only mild astigmatism and you have at least 20/40 vision you usually do not need or require glasses.
For those with worse levels of astigmatism that more blurs your vision then you would be required to wear glasses or contact lenses when driving.
If it's really hard to see when your astigmatism then your eye doctor would likely prescribe and recommend eye glasses.
You could also opt for Lasik Eye surgery which can correct the astigmatism and then you would not be required to wear glasses or contact lenses.

Some peoples astigmatism may actually get better overtime but it's rare that it happens that way.
The condition astigmatism tends to worsen as the person ages and there's not much known cause.
But it's likely that as you age and leave astigmatism untreated that the cornea shape changes more and more until the astigmatism worsens.
