Soft contact lens with lathe cut technique Lathe
athe cut technique Lathe cutting involves shaping a solid block of lens material into the desired form using precision machinery. This method allows for customized lens designs but may result in a less smooth surface compared to cast molding. Cast molding, on the other hand, uses a liquid monomer that is cured in a mold to form the lens. This technique typically results in a smoother and more uniform lens surface.
Soft contact lens with cast molding technique
Participants in this arm would receive Cast molding soft contact lenses and would wear them according to the study protocol, also likely for a specified duration.The cast molding technique for soft contact lenses involves creating lenses by polymerizing a liquid monomer mixture within a mold that forms the desired lens shape. Here's a brief overview of the steps involved in the cast molding process
