Acrysof Toric

Traditional intraocular lens implants had the ability to succcessfully correct nearsightedness and farsightedness but have been unable to correct astigmatism. The Acrysof Toric is a new implant that can correct significant amounts of corneal astigmatism thereby optimizing a patient’s distance vision after cataract treatment. Hudson Valley Eye Associates offers this new and exciting technology. As with all cataract patients, the appropriate choice of intraocular lens is made after examination and consultation with the surgeon.
