• Such a lens behaves like a combination of a spherical lens and a cylindrical lens. Toric lenses are used primarily in eyeglasses, contact lenses and intraocular lenses to correct astigmatism.
• The intraocular lenses used in correcting astigmatism have different curvature on two orthogonal axes, as on the surface of a torus, and are called toric lenses.
• Also in 2011, CooperVision initiated a product recall on a limited number of lots of Avaira spherical and toric lenses.
• For regular toric lenses, these powers are perpendicular to each other and their location relative to vertical and horizontal are specified by the axis component.
