Fluid lenses formed by rigid contact lenses (CL).
A.
The CL (42.00 D) is
flatter than the cornea (43.00 D), creating a
1.00 DS fluid lens.
B.
The CL (44.00 D) is
steeper than the cornea (43.00 D), creating a
−
1.00 DS fluid lens.
C.
The CL (43.00 D)
is the same curvature as the cornea (43.00 D), creating a fluid lens of zero power.
