Cataract treatment is surgery to remove the cloudy lens and replace it with a new lens. The new corneal lens inserted will help increase brightness. However, for patients with vision problems or those who want to enhance clarity, it is necessary to choose a lens suitable for each individual. Nowadays, personalized corneal lenses are not only for patients with nearsightedness and farsightedness as before, but there are new lens models that also correct astigmatism, called Toric Lens.
Get to Know Toric Lens High-Quality Astigmatism Correction Lens
This type of astigmatism correction lens has been used for about 10 years and has been continuously improved for better performance. This lens is made from a material called ‘Acrylic,’ which is highly durable and flexible and does not react with the patient’s body or eyes. The Toric Lens is specifically designed to correct astigmatism. Ophthalmologists will measure and calculate the appropriate lens placement angle for each patient individually to ensure the most accurate vision correction and to help patients regain clear vision as before.
Latest Technology.. A New Option for Measuring Intraocular Lenses
Phyathai 2 Hospital has introduced the latest intraocular lens measuring device, the first of its kind in Thailand, the IOLMaster 700. This device provides highly accurate measurements for intraocular lenses. When used with high-quality lenses, it enhances the effectiveness of cataract treatment, allowing patients to regain the sharpest possible vision from the lens’s full potential.
