Publisher's Synopsis
Very practical in its approach, this book gives optometrists, contact lens practitioners and dispensing opticians a comprehensive grounding in the fundamentals of basic contact lens fitting. Based on a popular and successful series of articles published in Optician, and an on-line continuing education course on www.optometryonline.net, this book has been thoroughly updated and revised to reflect modern contact lens practice. Lavishly illustrated in full colour throughout, Essential Contact Lens Practice contains practical information for all stages of the contact lens consultation. This includes selection and assessment through to the basic principles of fitting soft, rigid and toric lenses, managing presbyopia, contact lens care, as well as on therapeutic and extended wear lenses.
This text is an essential purchase for all optometrists, contact lens practitioners, dispensing opticians and students alike.
