Need to convert plus cyl rx into minus cyl then sphere equiv |
Only be done if the cyl is 0.75 or less |
|
Vertex distance |
Applies to more than +/- 4.00 D CAP rule |
|
No movement |
Lens is too tight |
|
Too much movement |
Lens is too loose |
|
There should be |
1 mm of movement after each blink and return to cerner over the cornea |
|

|
K readings : 40 44 46 |
40 - flat 44 - average 46 - steep |
|
With vs Against the rule |
