TLDR
In this paper, the authors characterized a lens having a circular refractive power profile, which is defined as having a discrete power which is between the minimum and the maximum power of the lens.
Abstract
A lens having a circular refractive power profile is characterized in that, in at least one semi-meridian located between semi-meridians having the minimum and the maximum refractive power of the lens, it has a discrete refractive power which is between the minimum and the maximum refractive power of the lens

Aspheric toric lens designs

TL;DR: Aspheric toric lenses as discussed by the authors reduce the number of cylindrical axis locations required for stock keeping units in inventory by aspherizing the toric surface thereof, which can be used to enhance depth-of-focus.

Contact or intraocular lens and method for its preparation

TL;DR: In this article, a toric lens is constructed with a smooth atoric aspect, where the optical path through the correcting portion of the lens corrects for both astigmatism and an axisymmetric aberration other than astigmatisms, there being no sudden surface discontinuity between the regions that provide the different corrections.
