Question

I have a cylindrical power in my left eye with an axis of 180 should I be worried about this? Would I need corrective surgery or is it manageable with glasses or contacts? Just trying to understand if this could affect my vision long-term

Cylindrical power is manageable with glasses or contact lenses; surgery like LASIK is optional and based on personal need and stability.
