7 Fitting Tips Diagnostic versus Empirical Fitting Greater fitting success with 8 lens Diagnostic set. Can Be fit empirically with ALL measurments; Refraction plus GP over-refraction Refraction plus GP over-refraction HVID measurement HVID measurement Manual K’s Manual K’s NO need for topograhphy NO need for topograhphy

8 What to expect Thinner tear layer Thinner tear layer (15 versus 80 microns) (15 versus 80 microns) Minimal movement +/- 1/2mm Minimal movement +/- 1/2mm Great comfort from initial insertion Great comfort from initial insertion Patients who say you are not putting that Frisbee in my eye!
