If you need cataract surgery and you have an astigmatism, you might be a good candidate for the AcrySof® Toric® IOL.

 

 

The AcrySof® Toric® lens is a foldable, single piece lens that an eye surgeon implants during cataract surgery to replace the clouded lens.  The unique design of the AcrySof® Toric® IOL makes it possible to reduce or eliminate corneal astigmatism and significantly improve uncorrected distance vision, independent of eyeglasses and contact lenses.

 

 

The AcrySof® Toric® lens is made of the same biocompatible lens material already successfully implanted in more than 25 million eyes since 1991.
