Frequent replacement lenses are designed to be replaced Monthly or quarterly
Conventional lenses are designed to be replaced Every six months or longer
Check the three(3) reasons why RGP lenses might be prescribed 1. To correct for astigmatism when a Toric lens did not provide acceptable vision. 2. For patients with keratoconus. 3. For use in the ortho-k process where lenses are worn during sleep to reshape the cornea
Check the statements about the silicone Hydrogel contact lens material that are TRUE Is the latest in soft contact lens technology, available in both Daily wear and Extended wear, allows more oxygen to transfer through the material, and provides all day comfort
Enhancement tint colored contact lenses Darken or intensify the existing eye color
Opaque tint colored contact lenses Dramatically change the eye color
Check all the characteristics of a Toric contact lens The bottom of the lens is weighted to ensure that it remains stationary on the eye when the patient blinks or looks around,correct for astigmatism
Who determines the wearing schedule ( modality) for the patient's lenses The wearing schedule is prescribed by the doctor
. The first hydrogel CL material . Has a limited ability to dissolve and transfer oxygen to the cornea .available in both Daily and extender PolyHema (HEMA )
. The latest in CL . More oxygen to pass through the lens. More wearing comfort. Available both Daily wear and Extended Silicone Hydrogel
