[Toric Intraocular Lenses and Correction of Astigmatism]
Overview
Affiliations
Toric intraocular lenses (tIOLs) have the potential to correct corneal astigmatism. The purpose of this review paper is: 1. to describe the biometric, keratometric and topographic conditions for implantion of tIOLs, 2. to highlight the advantages and disadvantages of tIOLs, 3. to define indications for and contraindications to tIOL implantation, 4. to provide clinical recommendations for the implantation of toric lenses, and 5. to report the specifications of all tIOLs that are currently available commercially.
