RETHINK MYTHS Rethink Astigmatism For too long, people with astigmatism have had to settle for discomfort, reduced vision, and lenses that don’t live up to the needs of modern life. Eye care professionals faced increased complexity when correcting astigmatism with toric lenses. But times have changed... With its revolutionary Toric Water Surface Lenses, Alcon is challenging old ideas and proving why it’s time to rethink astigmatism. Astigmats have to settle with LENSES THAT DON’T MEET THE NEEDS OF MODERN LIFESTYLES. New contact lens technologies have changed the game for toric lenses, offering ECPs the power to enhance the day-to-day life of their patients. Patients with astigmatism have to SACRIFICE COMFORT OR VISION TO FIND A LENS THAT IS SIMPLY “GOOD ENOUGH”FOR THEM. With up to 100% water at the surface5-10**, Alcon’s Toric Water Surface Contact Lenses deliver outstanding comfort and patient satisfaction.
