Acrysof Toric Lens
The Acrysof Toric lens implant differs from multifocal implants such as the ReStor IOL, in that the Toric lens was specifically designed for patients who have a significant amount of astigmatism. In the past, when patients with significiant astigmatism had cataract surgery, they would still require glasses for near and distance vision (because of their astigmatism). The design of the Acrysof Toric lens makes it possible to reduce or eliminate astigmatism and improve uncorrected distance vision. As with the other premium multifocal implants described above, there is an additional cost for this lens implant. However, we strive to make all of these lenses affordable through our various payment options.
