Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry recently got contact lenses as a means to solve his recent shooting slump. Curry also revealed that he has been dealing with astigmatism his entire career.

The two-time MVP recently gave an update about his condition:

It's crazy that the greatest shooter in the history of the NBA has been dealing with eye problems since his arrival in the league. Aside from his MVP honors, Curry has already been a three-time champion and a multiple time All-Star.

Curry got the contact lenses nine games ago. Since then, he has been shooting 48.7% from behind the arc and has made at least five 3-pointers in every game during that span.

If the contact lenses have indeed helped Curry's vision, then it should send a chilling message to the rest of the league. The Warriors are already the best team in the Western Conference this season, and they will be more lethal now that there has been a solution to Steph's eye condition. It is a welcome sight for the Dubs, who are aiming to win their third straight title by the end of this season.

Perfect timing for Curry to find a solution to this problem, with the playoffs just a week away.
