I know you’re mostly joking, but new glasses every year seems insane to me. I wear mine every day and I probably only get a new pair every 5 years or so.
For some people with mild astigmatism the coating can help as it reduces the glare enough to make it manageable.
However astigmatism is when the eyeball itself is misshapen. More like a barrel than a sphere. If it’s bad enough then anti glare won’t help even with the correct prescription. Then toric contacts, implants or laser correction is needed. The best solution depends on how bad it is and what is the person’s primary aim. Freedom from glasses, rock solid distance viewing or something else
You think glasses stop this?! Obviously it’d be worse without them but they don’t stop it.
They do, I’m wearing a pair right now.
OK well so am I, have since I was 2, and I’ve always had this issue.
You’re supposed to get new glasses every year or so, not keep wearing the ones you’ve had since you were two! That’s your problem right there!
Are you assuming they’ve aged!?

Do you get your eyes checked yearly? Your prescription will rarely not get worse as you age. It doesn’t get better or just stop deteriorating.
Nah. I know I probably should, but I honestly don’t care that much.
helps some people if they’re correctly made
My glasses and contacts correct this. If I look at my rifle sight without, the dot is a star. With correction, perfect dot.
Yes they absolutely do. The key is to have anti reflective coating.
