Precise alignment is critical in astigmatism correction, and a toric marker provides the reference points needed for accurate orientation of toric lenses. Its toric ring precisely marks the cornea or sclera, guiding the placement of intraocular lenses (IOLs) or other implants, ensuring the lens's axis aligns with the eye's natural curvature for clear vision. RUMEX offers markers with a unique gravity weight alignment system to stabilize the scale without interfering with the grip.

| FAQ |
|---|
| Which marker is used for preoperative reference marking? A Whitehouse Gravity Axis Marker is recommended to mark the limbal reference axis before surgery, typically with the patient sitting upright to reduce cyclotorsion effects. Which marker is used intraoperatively for toric IOL axis alignment? Mendez Degree Gauge and Bores Axis Markerare the most widely used universal orientation guides. Are degree markers available in 5-degree increments? Yes, markers with 5-degree increments are available, including 3-196 Richman Toric Marker. Confirm the exact scale. Can the marker be sterilized repeatedly? Reusable metal markers may be repeatedly sterilized if processed according to the Care & Cleaning Instructions. What ink is recommended for ocular marking? Use only sterile surgical marking ink approved for the intended ocular surface application and compatible with the marker. |
