Can Astigmatism Cause vision Distortions?

Can anyone tell me what causes astigmatism and can astigmatism cause vision distortions, also about symptoms? It seems that this is a very common condition. I’ve heard that almost everyone has a degree of astigmatism, often from birth, which may remain the same throughout life.

blurry/unclear vision

Three years ago, I had lasix surgery to remove cataracts from both eyes. It went well and had no problems. I wear reading glasses now. I've had good check-ups but just the past two weeks, I've had blurry/unclear vision in my left eye. It only bothers me when I read or type on the computer.
