Get Paragon Crt Fitting Guide

The :1 rule for contacts refers to the importance of wearing your lenses for a limited amount of time each day, typically no more than 12 hours. This helps maintain eye health and comfort, particularly with specialty lenses like CRT. To ensure you are following this guideline, consult the Paragon CRT Fitting Guide for personalized recommendations based on your wear schedule.

Yes, a difference of 0.25 in contact lens prescriptions can significantly impact your vision. Even a small change in power can affect clarity and comfort, especially for those who require precise vision correction. For optimal results, always consider adjustments as outlined in the Paragon CRT Fitting Guide. Accurate fitting ensures you enjoy the best visual experience possible.

Putting on CRT lenses requires a gentle touch to ensure comfort and effectiveness. Start by washing your hands thoroughly, then place the lens on your fingertip, making sure it has the correct shape. Gently hold your upper eyelid and use your other hand to pull down your lower eyelid, then position the lens on your eye. For more detailed steps, refer to the Paragon CRT Fitting Guide.

Identifying improper contact lens fit is crucial for your eye health. If you experience discomfort, redness, or blurred vision, these may be signs that your lenses do not fit correctly. Additionally, if your lenses slide around too much or feel like they are pinching, consult the Paragon CRT Fitting Guide for further insights. Remember, a proper fit enhances comfort and vision quality.

For hard contact lenses, this measurement is essential. The base curve number would be a number between 8.0 and 10.0 millimeters and would be more precise because these lenses need to fit just right. Now that most contact lenses dispensed are soft lenses, this measurement doesn't need to be quite as precise.

Within the same frame, a base curve of 8.4 is not too different from 8.6. You are correct though, the further you stray from a recommend base curve, you will first start to see the frame morphing out of shape — and eventually the lens will not fit into the frame (as you stray further and further).

The diameter and base curve are important factors in determining what the optimum fit is for you. A proper fit ensures full coverage of the cornea, optimum edge alignment, and adequate movement of the lens for tear exchange.

You should never order contact lenses with a base curve that is different from your prescription. This can damage your eyes and cause problems with vision. This is especially important for people who purchase cosmetic coloured contact lenses, which are often of a standardised size.
