double vision, due to astigmatism?

I have software for analyzing the effect of different types of aberrations in optical systems....and double images just don't happen.

And I believe, that astigmatism just like other vision problems is related to strain, when you are trying to force you eyes on a smaller point than what they are able to see in a relaxed way.
