    Corneal GP lenses come in various designs tailored to fit different corneal shapes and vision correction needs.

  • 2

    Spherical corneal GPs are effective for low-toricity corneas, providing cylinder correction through the lacrimal lens.

  • 3

    Front-surface toric lenses correct residual astigmatism but may experience rotational instability affecting acuity.

  • 4

    Bitoric and back-surface toric designs are suitable for higher corneal astigmatism, offering stable vision despite rotation.

  • 5

    Aspheric and reverse-geometry lenses cater to specific corneal conditions, enhancing lens centration and vision correction.
