6. Examination of the anterior segment of the eye: examination of the tear film, imaging methods of corneal shape and structure

7. Examinations related to the application of contact lenses: history, examination procedure before and after lens application, methods of dispensing

8. Contact lens-related examinations: refraction and vision examination with respect to contact lenses, physiological findings and findings representing relative and absolute contraindications to contact lens wear

9. Pathophysiology of contact lens wear: the effect of contact lenses on the eye and the ocular adnexa

10. Basic parameters of contact lenses and their relevance to practice: lens design, curvature, diameter, distribution by design

11. Basic properties of contact lenses: transport properties, especially oxygen permeability and transmissibility, botnation and mechanical properties, surface properties - wettability

12. Overview of contact lenses and application procedures: overview of different types of contact lenses, theoretical basis of application procedures

1. Introduction to contact lenses, contact practice equipment, NZZ

2. Keratometry, ARK, evaluation of corneal parameters

3. Types of contact lenses, regimen and frequency of contact lens wear

4. Contact lens history and selection, contraindications - relative, absolute

5. Refraction with regard to correction of CP, spherical equivalent, spherocyl. conversion, VD conversion

6. Examination before application of CP - macroscopy, basics of biomicroscopy PS - diffuse illumination, tear film evaluation

7. PS biomicroscopy - direct illumination - optical section, parallel section

8. Handling, application, removal of CS
