ABSTRACT

At first glance, it may seem that there are a lot of details. I also included information on acquiring the right tools and lens design as well as dealing with the different types of refractive errors you may encounter.

Pay particular attention to the Wearing Sequence Test. The patient must wear the lens and perform the drill in the correct sequence if the lenses are worn one at a time. If both lenses are worn together, you still need to know which eye performs the drill first. It is straightforward when dealing with a primary refractive error and most types of secondary refractive errors. The exception is when you are dealing with compound anisometropia and anisometropic amblyopia. The wearing sequence is reversed.

The information in this chapter provides the context for the drills given in the chapter What to Do. I wrote the following procedure for other professionals as well as the eye care specialist. Thus, I clarified certain terminology and elaborated on some of the steps. Performing the treatment is easier than you think once the preparations are in place. Refer to the examples in the chapter Case Examples as a guide.
