Load Balancing of requests and responses

Are load balancers 2-way ? If so how are they set up to handle incoming requests and outgoing responses or are there multiple 1-way balancers for each?

AFAIK, Load Balancers are two way, the reason is the SSL connection is established between the Load balancer & the Backend server that processes the request. Once response is received, (This is a 2 way connection) it forwards back the response to caller.
