Toric lenses are specialized contact lenses designed to correct astigmatism, a common vision condition caused by an irregularly shaped cornea. Unlike standard spherical lenses, toric lenses have different powers in different meridians, allowing them to focus light more effectively on the retina. This unique shape helps provide clearer vision for those with astigmatism. These lenses come in both soft and rigid gas-permeable materials, offering options for comfort and durability. Toric lenses can be worn daily or extended wear, depending on the individual's needs and the specific lens type. Regular eye exams are essential to ensure proper fit and vision correction.
