Toric Contact Lenses - Contact lenses designed to correct both myopia or hyperopia and astigmatism. They contain two curvatures at different angles and are effective for astigmatism only if they don’t rotate on the eye. Therefore they have a mechanism which keeps them stable. They can be soft or hard.

corneal haze - An opacification or cloudiness of the normally clear cornea. Any build up of inflammatory infiltrates (white blood cells), extra moisture, scar tissue, or foreign substances (like drugs) can cause a clouding of the cornea. Most types of haze will disappear with time or drug treatment but sometimes permanent haze or scars can form.
