People with astigmatism likely see lights streaky, blurry, fuzzy, surrounded by glare or halos. This happens because in dim light or at night your pupil dilates in order to allow more light into the eye. As it dilates and grows large, more peripheral light enters the eye. Increased blurring and glare resulting in fuzziness, particularly around lights is the main effect. Looking at Christmas lights may be a struggle to see the individual blubs or lights on a string, instead seeing a general blur with the lights merging together.
