- Scarring
- Capturing over soft
- Analysis
- Axial, Tangential, Refractive, Elevation & Wavefront maps
- Scales
- Mathematical Interpretation
- Dioptric range; I-S, SRI & SAI values

Contact lens Options (Case Studies)
Each case will be diagnosed topographically, then contact lens
options will be explored by means of the computer generated tear layer
(NaFl pattern) and bearing profile. Included in many of the cases will
be slit lamp video and/or still photography of the on eye outcomes with
various lens designs.
The cases will include the following principles to fit: spherical
GP, soft and GP torics, corneal, intra-limbal and scleral GPÔÇÖs as well
as aspherics, and reverse geometry lenses
Cases:
- Moderate - with the rule astigmatism (to understand ideal c/l
relationships)
- High Astigmatism (to understand highly toric but symmetrical
shapes)
- Form Fruste
- Central (Nipple) Keratoconus
- Oval Keratoconus
- Globic Keratoconus
- Pellucid Marginal Degeneration
- Penetrating Keratoplasty
- Radial Keratotomy
- Post LASIK/PRK
- Corneal Trauma
