Porter Ophthalmology Publishes New Resource Explaining Toric vs Non-Toric Lenses for Refractive Lens Exchange
Porter Ophthalmology details lens options for Refractive Lens Exchange, highlighting astigmatism correction and costs, with toric lenses benefiting patients with 1.0 diopter or more, Dr. Isaac Porter said.
- Porter Ophthalmology announced a patient article titled 'Toric vs Non-Toric Lenses for Refractive Lens Exchange' on February 04, 2026, available via their website and press release.
- Designed to guide patients, the article aims to give clear, research-based information for Refractive Lens Exchange and addresses clinical drivers like measurable astigmatism and lens matching.
- Most toric lenses stabilize within the first 24 hours and remain long-term, though rare rotation may need repositioning; both toric lenses and non-toric intraocular lenses come in monofocal, multifocal, or extended depth-of-focus designs.
- Because elective RLE lacks coverage, the article explains the toric lens upgrade charge and fees range from $900 to $1,500 per eye, up to $2,000 for some lenses.
- The article helps readers identify which lens best fits their needs, with patients with higher astigmatism often achieving improved uncorrected distance vision using toric lenses, which stabilize within 24 hours.
