Zusammenfassung: | A disclosed ophthalmological surgical set includes a contact lens, a cross-linking substance, and a device configured to generate negative pressure. The contact lens has a deformation side that is configured to face the cornea of an eye when the contact lens is placed on the eye. The deformation side of the contact lens has a shape that is a negative of a substantially emmetropic corneal shape. The cross-linking substance is applied to the cornea before placement of the contact lens on the eye. The contact lens includes a coupling device configured to generate a negative pressure between the contact lens and the eye on which the contact lens is placed such that the cornea can be suctioned, via the negative pressure, onto the deformation side of the contact lens thereby deforming the cornea into the substantially emmetropic corneal shape. |
