Fitting and adjustment of spectacles and contact lenses - what does this mean
Fitting and adjustment of spectacles and contact lenses is a process of determining the best optical correction for a person's visual needs. this includes measuring the curvature of the cornea, determining the degree of refractive error, and selecting the appropriate lens type and power that will provide the best vision correction.
What happens during the disease - fitting and adjustment of spectacles and contact lenses
The pathogenesis of fitting and adjustment of spectacles and contact lenses is related to the refractive error of the eye. this refractive error can be caused by a variety of factors, including changes in the shape of the eye, a decrease in the flexibility of the lens, or a decrease in the focusing power of the cornea. it is important to get a proper fitting and adjustment of the spectacles and contact lenses in order to correct the refractive error and improve vision.
