âCruâ is the French word that is typically translated as growth, when referring to wine vineyards. It is closely related to another famous wine term âterroirâ. The Cru reflects how the Terrior contributes a certain character(s) to the wine. Mo...
The thicker dehydrated amniotic membrane disk (15mm Ambio5, 100 microns nominal thickness) was hydrated and manipulated into the concavity of the 18mm Kontur contact lens (Kontur Kontact Lens Co.). The resulting unit was placed onto the new ocular surface with the contact lens retaining the disk.
The base curve, diameter and peripheral curves are the primary modifiable factors that control the fit of the contact lens on the eye. Soft contact lenses usually have a base curve of 7.8 to 9.2 mm in radius. Reducing the radius of the base curve in turn reduces the sagittal depth of the lens (all other factors being constant,) this âtightensâ the fit of the lens on the eye.
