There are no drugs to correct astigmatism.

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

Sorry to say but there are no medicines to correct Astigmatism.

If minor, it does not require any treatment.
But if more blurring or visual disturbances , then you have 2 options for that as

@ Corrective glasses or lens
@ Refractive surgery

Your ophthalmologist would be the best person to guide you in this regard.
