A digital tool utilized by eye care professionals, this resource assists in determining the optimal parameters for toric contact lenses. By inputting a patient’s refractive error, including sphere, cylinder, and axis measurements, the system calculates the appropriate lens power and orientation required to correct astigmatism. This facilitates a more precise and efficient lens fitting process, improving visual acuity and comfort for the wearer.
The application of such a resource streamlines the contact lens fitting process, potentially reducing chair time and minimizing the need for multiple trial lenses. This not only enhances the efficiency of the eye care practice but also improves the patient experience. Historically, fitting toric lenses required more manual calculations and adjustments; the advent of digital tools has significantly improved the accuracy and predictability of the fitting process.
