How can I tell if I have astigmatism or myopia?
For people with astigmatism,they can't see both near and distant without squinting and there seems to be double image in their vision .Sometimes they may have eye strain or headaches.They have difficulty focusing on printed words and lines.But people with myopia can see things close up.For your case,it is possibly that you are having myopia.

Low-degree astigmatism can be corrected by contacts,but there is no study showing that contacts are more effective for astigmatism than glasses.You can ask suggestion from your doctor and determine which one is good for astigmatism.
