This revised textbook on UK contact lens practice incorporates the new international standard terminology, extended wear lenses and contact lenses in abnormal ocular conditions. It also includes chapters on solutions and, for the first time, rigid gas permeable lenses are discussed. It is intended for the use of the optometrist in training but will also take the reader beyond this to postgraduate level and serve as a key reference work for the practising optometrist and ophthalmologist.
