For all of you experts out there who know more than me...
I had a patient come in today to purchase RX sunglasses. We were discussing polarized lenses and she told me she was told she cannot wear polarized lenses because she has some astigmatism. Her Rx is quite low (OD -1.00 -.50 x 015; OS -.50 -.75 x 177). I have always thought that as long as the lenses are manufactured and edged correctly so that the 180 line and the cylinder axis are correct (and match), a person with cylinder correction can wear a polarized lens. Am I incorrect?
