2. Toric lens - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toric_lens

   Toric lens surface as "cap" (top-right) from a torus (here with R = 1.2 r). A toric lens is a lens with different optical power and focal length in two orientations perpendicular to each other. One of the lens surfaces is shaped like a "cap" from a torus (see figure at right), and the other one is usually spherical.

5. Eyeglass prescription - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eyeglass_prescription

   Patients with astigmatism need a cylindrical lens, or more generally a toric lens to see clearly. The geometry of a toric lens focuses light differently in different meridians. A meridian, in this case, is a plane that is incident with the optical axis. For example, a toric lens, when rotated correctly, could focus an object to the image of a ...

6. Cataract surgery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cataract_surgery

   The lens is implanted in the eye's lens capsule, where the contractions of the ciliary body, which would focus the eye with the natural lens, are used to focus the implant, instead. [2] [38] IOLs used in correcting astigmatism have different curvature on two orthogonal axes, as on the surface of a torus: for this reason, they are called toric ...

7. Aspheric lens - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aspheric_lens

   Moritz von Rohr is usually credited with the design of the first aspheric lenses for eyeglasses. He invented the eyeglass lens designs that became the Zeiss Punktal lenses. The world's first commercial, mass-produced aspheric lens element was manufactured by Elgeet for use in the Golden Navitar 12 mm f /1.2 normal lens for use on 16 mm movie ...
