Toric lenses

Toric contact lenses are contact lenses for astigmatism, a refractive error of the eye, generally caused by an irregular curvature of the cornea. Because the eye is shaped more like a rugby ball, light rays in one axis (horizontal) are refracted differently than in the other axis (vertical). As a result, the rays of light do not converge in the same focal point. As a result, objects appear wider or longer, which we experience as a blurred image. Astigmatism or cylindrical aberration can occur on its own or in association with myopia or hyperopia.

Toric contact lenses are contact lenses that correct astigmatic aberrations. The direction in which the image is stretched is expressed in degrees, the axis of the cylinder. Lentilles-Internet offers various toric contact lenses that you can order here online at attractive prices.
