1
Check Your patients Expectations How long does he/she intend to wear the lenses? What is your patients occupation? Does he move his head a lot ? Does he read a lot ? night or day? What does he use more - near or far vision?

Chair Time Needed From You & Your patient Both you & your patient must free up time for the fittings 3 to 7 meetings over a period of 6 months Lenses will need to be changed during this period

Explain to Your patient What Are Contact Lenses ? How contact lenses work ! Show examples of contact lenses Demonstrate the fitting of contact lenses Demonstrate handling and cleaning of contact lenses10

Reduce ExpectationsAll Multifocal systems are a compromise As with glasses - every one needs time to adapt !i.e.- Multifocal glasses distort size and form , one can see only through the tunnel.
Unlike glasses, with contact lenses you walk naturally and can read in all directions !

Adaptation Time! Normally between 1 to 4 weeks This can be even longer due to the need to change the lens power.

Working Space Adaptation ! Check visual acuity in daylight conditions. Show your patient large objects and then immediately let him read from the newspaper . Let your patient try the lenses ! Always check visual acuity binocularly!

True aspheric optics with a continuous gradient of power that is truly optical from edge to edge. Greater amount of ADD correction with minimal impact on contrast sensitivity. Usable ADD is contained along a shorter radius of the axial center of the lens in a usable optical area. Produces far greater amounts of ADD correction than is possible with any other manufacturing process.

Multifocal Lenses vs Single Vision Lenses Fitting Multifocal lenses is more complicated . Teenagers are not the customers!? : - Tear quality - low. - Visual demands - very high. - Schedule - very busy

Fitting The Dispo MultiPatient Historyalong with
Normal Slit Lamp Evaluation for C/L
Keratometry measurements : horizon & vertical 7.40< (KV +kH)/2 < 8.00 Pupil size 3.0 to 5.0 mm
Refraction For the Best Vision Sphere: SPH. Myopes - red & green equal. Hyperopes - moves to the red
Movement : 0.8 mm Far & Near vision are acceptable.
Allow lens to settle for at least 1 hour.
Select the first choice Dispo Multi lens by using the table Lens Power Selection
Give the lenses to your patient and call him after one week for recheck

Fitting The Dispo Multi cont1. Measure the reading power (NV) at 37.0 to 40.0 cm monocular R + L. 2. Cylinder power up to 0.75DS is acceptable. 3. Balance the near vision, binocularly.Select the first choice Dispo Multi lens by using the table Lens Power Select

Dispo Multi Fitting TIPS Myopes - Best sphere for contact lens.Near and far vision should be acceptable within1 hour.
Hyperopes - Best sphere for contact lens +0.25 to +0.50DS. Near vision OK . Far vision will improve within 7 days. Use the Toric Eye-Q above -0.75DS cyl.
Soflex Dispo Multi
26
Dispo Multi Fitting TIPS cont. Make over refraction binocular, with 0.25DS steps. Lens movement should be about 0.7 to 1.0mm. Fit the Improved mono vision system when far vision incorrectly blurred - use single vision lens for the dominant eye best sphere power +0.25DS.

Far or / and Near Vision are not satisfactory !
Troubleshooting
Check the reading acuity with goodillumination at a distance of 40 cm.
Check the patient for distance using an outsidevista. Remember the reading zone is in the center of the lens.
Over refracted R+L binocular in 0.25DS stepsand change lenses respectively.

Toric
Eye-Q
Fitting Tips
Fit the Toric Eye-Q when the corneal cyl. is above -0.75DS Fit the normal Eye-Q as a trial lens with the sphere power, make over refraction to evaluate the final prescription sphere power and cyl. power. Use the Toric LITE fitting instruction to evaluate the final lens B.C.

Toric
Eye-Q
Fitting Tips cont
Generally the dot sign will be at 6 oclock Normal and high binocularity is the first key to success with this system. Use the Eye-Q lens when the cyl. Is lenticularor residual Use the improved mono vision system where you do not reach good far or near vision.
