Within a few years, Mounjaro has become a major treatment for type 2 diabetes and obesity. Its active substance, tirzepatide, often brings about a marked fall in blood glucose and substantial weight loss. Like Ozempic, it acts on the incretin system. But the two drugs are not identical, and that difference matters when it comes to the eyes.
In the first part of this article, we saw what astigmatism really is: an eye whose optical power varies with direction, with two focal points instead of one. We also saw that it can be regular or irregular, and that it comes from the cornea, from the crystalline lens, or from both at once.
Astigmatism is extremely common. Yet when a patient reads "cylinder -1.25 at 90°" on their prescription, they rarely understand what it actually means. Astigmatism is often described by saying that the eye is "shaped like a rugby ball rather than a football". The image is easy to picture, but it does not really explain the defect.
On 12 August 2026, an exceptional solar eclipse will be visible from Belgium. In the early evening, the Moon will pass in front of the Sun and will cover nearly 90% of its disc. This will be the largest partial eclipse visible here since the eclipse of 1999.
