Conventional Intraocular lenses (IOL) provide an effective treatment for cataracts, a clouding of the eyes's normally clear lens which usually develops with age.
Unfortunately, if you have astigmatism - an uneven or irregular corneal surface - your vision may remain blurred or distorted even after the cloudy "cataract" lens is replaced with a clear conventional IOL. To correct this residual distortion and blurriness, you would need to continue wearing eyeglasses or contact lenses. However, you now have another option!
A new generation of Toric IOL is now available! The advanced technology of the Toric IOL allows you achieve improve distance vision while greatly reducing your dependence on eyeglasses. While you still may require eyeglasses for reading, you may enjoy the benefits of significantly improved distance vision and the freedom of reduced dependence on eyeglasses for many daily activities.
