Astigmatism:

In this defect the surface of eye is not perfectly spherical. The eye has different focal point in dissimilar planes and image of an object is not focused clearly on the retina.

Correction:

Astigmatism is corrected by asymmetrical lenses which have dissimilar radii of curvature in dissimilar plane.
