I juuuuust saw this post.
I don't know how bad it has always been. I got glasses at around 7, contacts at 11 and RGP contacts in high school. I don't think I even paid attention to the astigmatism correction until I switched to disposable contacts and realized how expensive they were. We probably stopped correcting the astigmatism when it got over -3, because the one or two brands that make toric lenses stronger than that are pretty cost-prohibitive.
I'm wondering if it might be keratoconus, but I haven't had anyone check.
No amblyopia as a child, but uncorrected I've never been able to tell the difference between my eyes, it's just been blurry out of both.
