TEXTTBOOK OF CONTACT LENSES

This book has a broad-spectrum range—to stay within the terminology of our field - of topics ranging from hypoxia and corneal physiology to keratoconus and scleral lenses; it looks at sports, colored lenses, basic fitting approaches, lens material but also at contact lens solutions; all with nice illustrations.

In its 5th edition, the book updates itself regularly—to comply with the changes in our field—and it helps us in this way with the most fundamental task of an eye care practitioner: to provide the patient with the best possible optical solution for their visual requirement.
