5 Key Takeaways
-
1
Toric soft lens designs have improved stability, but practitioners should not assume perfect alignment on the first fitting.
-
2
Overlooking lens rotation can lead to increased chair time and patient frustration, emphasizing the importance of rotation awareness.
-
3
The LARS principle (left add, right subtract) is crucial for accurate lens ordering based on observed rotation.
-
4
Each degree of lens misalignment can leave 3% to 3.5% of cylinder uncorrected, significantly affecting astigmatic correction.
-
5
Applying LARS with precision enhances patient satisfaction and practice efficiency, reinforcing the importance of lens rotation assessment.
