Description
Written in a concise, practical, outline manner, Manual of Contact Lens Prescribing and Fitting, 3rd Edition follows the logical progression
of patient care, from basic prefitting topics, through rigid lens, soft lenses and advanced/specialty issues. Valuable management information
assists in fitting and problem-solving situations, and clinical pearls in every chapter highlight key points. The companion CD-ROM uses
video, animation, and morphing to demonstrate the skills of movement and position that are necessary to correctly fit rigid contact lenses.
