Cataract Lens Implants Designed to Correct Astigmatism

Toric IOLs are an advanced lens implant used during cataract surgery to improve vision while also correcting astigmatism. Unlike traditional lens implants, Toric IOLs are specifically designed for patients with irregular corneal shape and blurred vision caused by astigmatism.

Many patients who choose Toric lens implants experience clearer distance vision with reduced dependence on glasses following cataract surgery. Toric IOLs help correct both cataracts and astigmatism during a single procedure.

Benefits of Toric IOLs

Advanced Vision Correction During Cataract Surgery

Cataract surgery can dramatically improve visual clarity and quality of life for patients experiencing cloudy or blurred vision.

Corrects Astigmatism During Cataract Surgery

Toric lens implants are specially designed to improve blurry vision caused by astigmatism while replacing the cloudy cataract lens.

Reduced Dependence on Glasses

Many patients experience improved distance vision and less reliance on corrective eyewear after surgery.

Modern FDA-Approved Lens Technology

Advanced Toric IOL technology helps improve visual clarity and correct corneal irregularities associated with astigmatism.

The Toric IOL Procedure

What to Expect During Surgery and Recovery

The cataract-impaired lens of the eye is gently removed through a tiny incision that is made on the edge of the cornea. The lens is then removed and replaced with the Toric IOL. The procedure takes from 15 to 45 minutes to complete.

Following the procedure, patients will be able to return home after about an hour of observation. A follow-up appointment is usually scheduled after surgery to monitor the patient’s recovery. Recovery from the surgery is usually short, and most patients are able to return to their normal activities almost immediately.

There may be some itching, discomfort and sensitivity to light after surgery, which can be managed through eye drops that have been prescribed by your doctor. These symptoms usually go away within a few days as the eye heals and patients can begin to enjoy the many benefits of their new lens.
