2024年2月8日 · Traditional monofocal and multifocal IOLs provide sharp, clear vision. In contrast, toric IOLs correct blurry or distorted vision by introducing different powers across various meridians of the lens – neutralizing astigmatism so you can see clearly at all distances after cataract surgery.

2024年11月4日 · Monofocal Toric Lens. Basic monofocal lenses provide good vision correction at one fixed focal point after cataract surgery, which can be set to near or distance vision. While simple monofocal lenses are typically covered by insurance, toric monofocal lenses are not. However, they are a more affordable option than premium toric lenses ...

2025年1月8日 · Monofocal lenses are designed to correct distance vision, while toric lenses are meant for people with astigmatism, a condition that distorts the shape of the eye. Monofocal lenses offer clear vision at one distance only—either near, intermediate, or far.

Toric lenses. Toric lenses help people who have astigmatism. These lenses improve how light hits your retina, allowing you to have a sharper, clearer vision. Toric lenses are available in monofocal, multifocal, extended depth of focus (EDOF) or accommodative models. They serve to improve the quality of the vision delivered.

2022年12月12日 · Toric lenses have extra built-in correction for astigmatism. These are available in monofocal and some presbyopia-correcting IOLs. Light-adjustable lens (LAL). This newer type of monofocal IOL is the only type of IOL that can be customized after surgery.

Toric monofocal IOLs are effective in neutralizing pre-existing corneal astigmatism at the time of cataract surgery and result in better UCDVA and significant reductions in postoperative refractive astigmatism compared with nontoric monofocal IOLs.

2024年2月9日 · While regular intraocular lenses cannot correct astigmatism, specialized toric lenses provide sharp, clear vision at specific focal points without needing glasses – however these costly toric lenses might not be optimal choices as standard monofocal IOLs might provide more immediate visual improvement at lower costs.

2022年8月1日 · Toric lenses are available in monofocal, trifocal, or extended depth-of-focus versions. The Light Adjustable Lens contains photosensitive material that can be altered using external ultraviolet light, and therefore allows adjustment of the focusing distance soon after surgery, if necessary.

2023年7月3日 · Toric intraocular lenses (IOLs) are considered the most predictive way of correcting corneal astigmatism in a patient undergoing cataract surgery, as they may correct astigmatism as low as 0.75 diopters. Monofocal and multifocal toric IOLs are available and are chosen based on the patient's expectations.

Conclusions: Toric monofocal IOLs are effective in neutralizing pre-existing corneal astigmatism at the time of cataract surgery and result in better UCDVA and significant reductions in postoperative refractive astigmatism compared with nontoric monofocal IOLs.
