No: Wearing glasses does not change your uncorrected vision….
Glasses will focus light, but will not change your eyes.

Yes, but no: In fact, the toric intraocular lens could be removed, but after two years, the potential complications of removing it may outweigh the potential gain. It is unlikely that you would be free of glasses with a new lens. If you can see well with glasses correcting your astigmatism that may be your best result.

You should considering having the contact lenses refit to another lens
