An improved diagnostic contact lens.

An improved diagnostic contact lens.

Modification of a standard Goldmann goniolens by reducing the curvature of the contact surface to 8.5 mm radius of curvature (from the standard curvature of 7.4 mm) enabled gonioscopy to be carried out without the nuisance of air bubbles.

Diagnostic Contact Lens.

Two methods can be employed to carry out this examination after insertion of the lens in an anaesthetized eye: (1) Examination by Reflected Light.-A very narrow slit-lamp beam is projected on to the area of angle to be examined, with the eye looking slightly away from the direction of the beam. The beam is focused on the angle and the various structures in it, and the examination is carried out...

The Smart Contact Lens: from an Artificial Iris to a Contact Lens Display

A contact lens as an artificial cornea for improved visualization during practice surgery on cadaver eyes.

OBJECTIVE To describe the use of a polymethylmethacrylate contact lens as an artificial cornea to enhance visualization for practice surgery using cadaver eyes. DESIGN The opaque cornea of a cadaver eye is removed by trephination. Cyanoacrylate glue is used to secure a large-diameter polymethylmethacrylate contact lens to the corneal rim. RESULTS Excellent visualization for practice surgery...
