Abstract: Astigmatism is a type of refractive error in which the eye does not focus light evenly on the retina. This results in distorted or blurred vision at all distances The aim of this cross-sectional study was to measure the prevalence of astigmatism among the female university students who rely heavily on electronic devices. Also, to find the association between this eye defect and the socio-economic factors and the time duration of using electronic devices. The sample consisted of female students, studying in university, in Jeddah city, who responded to self-administrated questionnaires. It was found that the prevalence of astigmatism was 14.69 %, and there was no statistical significant association with both the socio-economic factors and time duration of using electronic devices.However, the risk of astigmatism is more among Saudi students, and among those who use e-devices more than 8 hours per day.
