ASTIGMATIC LENSIn an astigmatic lens, all the meridians do
not have the same curvature and a point image of a point object cannot be formed.
The lens effectively gives a minimum power in one direction, gradually changing to a maximum power in the other, at right angle to the first.

There are two types of astigmatic lenses, namely
-Cylindrical lenses
-Toric lenses

CYLINDRICAL LENSES
Cylindrical lenses have one plane surface and the other curved surface forming the part of a cylinder.
Thus, in one meridian the lens has no vergence power which is known as the axis of the cylinder.
![Page 6: Astigmatic lens](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061400/58a287961a28ab891a8b748f/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The axis of a cylinder is always at right angles to the power meridian of the cylinder.
![Page 7: Astigmatic lens](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061400/58a287961a28ab891a8b748f/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
In the meridian at right angle to the axis, the cylinder acts as a spherical lens.
The total effect is the formation of a line image of a point object. This is called focal line. It is parallel to the axis of the cylinder.

ORIENTATION OF AXIS

A lens with purely cylinder power would be described as, say – 4.00Dcyl(diopter cylindrical)
Angles up to 180 are used for the axis of cylinder, the full 360° protractor is only required for the base direction of prism.
![Page 13: Astigmatic lens](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061400/58a287961a28ab891a8b748f/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
When describing a horizontal cylindrical axis, it is conventional to use the angle 180°, rather than zero,

ORIENTATION OF CYLINDRICAL AXES ON A PROTRACTOR

ORIENTATION OF CYLINDRICAL AXES A good way to recognize cylindrical
axes from dispenser’s side is to view the back of your left hand; the thumb will point to the zero degree.
Thumb will point to zero degrees

TORIC LENSESToric lenses, also known as sphero-
cylinder lenses can be explained as spherical lens that has been placed in contact with a plano-cylinder lens.
![Page 17: Astigmatic lens](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061400/58a287961a28ab891a8b748f/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Since a plano-cylinder lens has no power along its axis meridian, the power along the axis meridian of the combination must result from spherical element alone.
The power along the other principal meridian of the lens, at right angles to the axis meridian of the cylinder surface, is the sum of the sphere and cylinder.
![Page 18: Astigmatic lens](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061400/58a287961a28ab891a8b748f/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Under the rotation test, it exhibits scissor movement in the same way as a plano-cylindrical lens and under the movement test ; it exhibits movement along each of its principal meridians.
![Page 19: Astigmatic lens](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061400/58a287961a28ab891a8b748f/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
The power of a sphero-cylindrical lens is expressed by stating the power of the spherical component first, followed by the power of the cylindrical component, and finally the direction of the cylindrical axis.
Thus, the specification – 3.00/– 2.00 × 90º
![Page 20: Astigmatic lens](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061400/58a287961a28ab891a8b748f/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
OPTICAL CROSS REPRESENTATION OF – 3.00/– 2.00 × 90°
![Page 21: Astigmatic lens](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061400/58a287961a28ab891a8b748f/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
It signifies that spherical component of the lens is – 3.00D
The cylindrical component is – 2.00DC
The axis of the cylindrical surface lies along the 90º meridian.
![Page 22: Astigmatic lens](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061400/58a287961a28ab891a8b748f/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
On representing the power of the sphero-cylindrical lens by means of optical cross, the principal meridians show – 3.00D on vertical meridian and – 5.00D on the horizontal meridian.

STURM’S CONOIDThe pencil of light that results from refraction
at an astigmatic lens does not focus as a point, the interval between two line foci is called the ‘Interval of Sturm.
The best focusing occurs somewhere inside the interval of Sturm. This point is called the ‘Circle of least confusion.
![Page 25: Astigmatic lens](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061400/58a287961a28ab891a8b748f/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
The complete envelop of the light near the circle of least confusion is called the ‘Sturm’s Conoid.

DETECTION OF CYLINDRICAL LENS
In order to determine the cylinder lens and to detect its dioptric strength.
Hold the lens a few inches away from your eyes.
sight a straight lined object, such as window or the door frame.
![Page 28: Astigmatic lens](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061400/58a287961a28ab891a8b748f/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Rotate the lens slowly as you would turn a steering wheel – first to the right (clockwise), then to the left (anti-clockwise)
If a section of the door frame appears slanted, it establishes that the lens under examination is a cylindrical lens. This is called “scissors like movement.
![Page 29: Astigmatic lens](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061400/58a287961a28ab891a8b748f/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
PLANO-CYLINDRICAL
Now, neutralize both the meridians separately.
If the movement in one meridian is nil, it is a plano-cylindrical lens and nil movement meridian is taken as the axis of the lens.
![Page 30: Astigmatic lens](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061400/58a287961a28ab891a8b748f/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
SPHERO-CYLINDRICAL LENS
If both the meridians show movement, it is a sphero - cylindrical lens.
The weaker movement meridian is taken as the axis of the lens under observation.
Neutralize both the meridians as before to determine exact spherical and cylindrical elements.
