For very low cylinder that does not qualify for a toric lens and no access to femto, do you ever consider LRIs or slightly adjusting your main wound placement (if possible)?

I personally don't do manual LRIs as they can be somewhat unpredictable. Adjusting the main wound to the steep axis can treat 0.1 to 0.3 D due to SIA, so that might be the safest plan if femto is not available. B&L's Envista toric does treat as low as 1.25D, so that may also be an option.
