These Toric Lenses correct astigmatism by compensating for the shape of the eye. Astigmatism is a vision condition that occurs when surfaces of the eye, such as the cornea, have an oval shape. This shape prevents light from focusing properly on the back of the eye, the retina. People with astigmatism will usually have blurred vision, and in some cases may also experience headaches, eyestrain, or fatigue. Acuvue Advance for Astigmatism, Acuvue Toric give you crisp, steady vision and comfort all day long.
