Topic: Contact Lenses
OptometryToday noted that "recent industry data shows that although almost half of all UK contact lens wearers (43%) have some level of astigmatism, fewer than one in five (18%) are fitted with a toric lens. Only half of astigmats have heard about toric contact lenses as a corrective option. This gives eye care professionals a huge opportunity to offer their patients the right contact lenses to meet their vision needs." The same is probably true for Americans.
