Toric Lens Implant for Patient With Cataract and Astigmatism?
Posted By Patient Letter to the Editor On November 18, 2011 @ 8:49 am In Cataract,Patient Questions | Comments Disabled
Hi! I just had my visit with an ophthalmic surgeon to address the cataract in my left eye (my right eye is doing fine at this point).
I have always had an astigmatism in my left eye, and the doctor has recommended the toric lens implant.
My question is this: if I’m still going to need “readers” afterwards, why not just get the regular lens and just continue wearing my glasses? Opinions?
