Solutions for Anisometropia
Phernell Walker, MBA, ABOM, LDO, NCLEC
Can you believe that over 66% of the world's population is affected by anisometropia? This condition, which is often overlooked, can lead to a wide range of complications, including the development of aniseikonia. Anisometropia occurs when the two eyes have significantly different refractive powers, causing visual discrepancies that can be challenging to manage. In this course, we will delve into the intricacies of anisometropia, exploring its underlying factors and the implications it has on vision. We will also examine the differences between contact lenses that are indicated versus those that are not, using magnification formulae to guide our discussions. Additionally, we will focus on the process of creating iseikonic lenses, which are specifically designed to provide a more harmonious visual experience for individuals dealing with these conditions. Join us as we uncover the complexities of these visual phenomena and their impact on everyday life.
