First electronic toric marker

ASICO is introducing the world’s first electronic Toric marker which the company says will maximise an accurate Toric mark. “These markers are designed to enhance toric marking accuracy from 5° mean error to 0.2° error. This will in turn improve the lens effectiveness from 83 per cent to 99.4 per cent,†said a company spokeswoman. ASICO says the design of the ASICO electronic toric marker allows surgeons to use both the sense of sight and sound to ensure an accurate mark by looking at a signal light and listening to a beeping sound when the marker is aligned perfectly horizontal.
