Even if you have a complex prescription, soft Toric Lenses are available for you

Do you remember the days when people with astigmatism couldn’t wear soft lenses? They were restricted to “hard” lenses or no lenses at all?

Welcome to the age of revolutionary contact lenses.

Nowadays, people with astigmatism don’t have to be restricted when it comes to choosing their preferred lens style. Toric lenses are now available for individuals with astigmatism in various styles, including disposable, monthlies and even colored lenses!

Even for those with a complex prescription, soft toric lenses are possible, giving you the freedom of clear vision without the frustration of glasses.

How is the toric lens constructed differently from the traditional contact lenses? The material is the same as other lenses. The difference is just in the shape. Toric contacts have different curvatures to accommodate the shape of the eye and also have a distinct device which prohibits the contact from slipping around on the eye. This device encourages sharp, crisp vision for the lens wearer.

Although the introduction of toric lenses has given individuals with astigmatism a world of opportunities, getting a fitting from your eye care physician for toric lenses will be more expensive. Consequently, too, every purchase of toric contacts will also cost more. The benefits of these wonderful lenses, however, are limitless and invaluable!

Although most individuals prefer the choices that soft toric lenses provide, many people still choose hard contacts. Rigid gas permeable lenses or RGPs hold the shape of the lens more, providing clearer vision for people with astigmatism.

No matter what you and your eye care physician decide, the world of contact lenses is now available for individuals with astigmatism through toric lenses. Feel free to browse the menu on this page if you like to buy toric lenses.
