The term parameters refers to the way your contact lenses fit on your eye - the curvature, diameter and power of each lens. More precisely, one may distinguish three types of parameters or parameter modes: input parameters, output parameters, and input/output parameters; these are often denoted in, out, and in out or input. Out Parameters The parameters specified on spectacle prescriptions vary, but typically include the patient's name, power of the lenses, any prism to be included, the pupillary distance, expiration date, and the prescriber's signature •Finalize contact lens prescription Based on the obtained measurements, initial fitting, trial period feedback, and any necessary adjustments, finalize the contact lens prescription for the patient. Accurately document the lens specifications, including parameters such as base curve, diameter, power, and brand. •Contact lens parameters you need to know The base curve of a contact lens describes the curvature of the lens in millimetres. It ensures that the lens sits well on the eye. Usually, this parameter is from 8.2 to 9.0. The most common BC is 8.6. •Contact lens parameters Unit of measurement More information Dioptres dioptre from –30.00 to +30.00 Curvature millimeter from 8.00 to10.00 Average millimeter from 13.00 to 15.00 Cylinder dioptre from –0.25 to –10.00, toric contact lenses • Colored Lenses: Colored contact lenses have become increasingly popular for cosmetic purposes. They can change the color of the wearer's eyes, enhance natural eye color, or create a dramatic effect. They are available in a wide range of colors and designs. • a website banner telling users to subscribe to it's newsletter Home Ophthalmic Blog Top 10 Innovations in Contact Lens Technology Top 10 Innovations in Contact Lens Technology Top 10 Innovations in Contact Lens Technology March 07, 2023 Table of Contents Contact lenses have come a long way since their inception in the early 1900s.
