CooperVision Biofinity Multifocal Monthly Contact Lenses
A simplified fitting philosophy
Our new fitting process is based on eye care professionals’ real-world experiences.
- Fitting lower ADD powers is now simpler than ever by using the same D lens design for both eyes
- Fitting higher ADD powers continues to be flexible, giving you more options for exceptional vision performance.
Initial visit
Step 1
Start with a new refraction and verifi cation of eye dominance fogging technique.
Step 2
Select the distance prescription based on spherical equivaequivalent corrected for the vertex distance. Choose D or N lens design based on needed ADD power
| ADD | Dominant eye | Non Dominant eye |
|---|---|---|
| +1.00 | D | D |
| +1.50 | D | D |
| +2.00 | D | N |
| +2.50 | D | N |
Step 3
Although lens will equilibrate quickly, allow patients to adapt to lenses for a minimum of 15 minutes before assessing vision. If binocular vision is unacceptable, perform a monocular over refraction, using hand-held trial lenses, to determine which eye needs improvement. To improve distance vision add +/-0.25D (up to +/-0.50D) to the eye that needs improvement. To improve near vision add +/-0.25D up to +/-0.50D to the eye that needs improvement.
