Power profiles of single vision and multifocal soft contact lenses

Highlights • Power profiles of 16 single vision and multifocal soft contact lenses were measured. • Repeatability of the SHSOphthalmic power-mapping instrument was found to be variable. • Multifocal power profiles vary significantly between lens types. • Negative spherical aberration found in most l...

Zusammenfassung:	Highlights • Power profiles of 16 single vision and multifocal soft contact lenses were measured. • Repeatability of the SHSOphthalmic power-mapping instrument was found to be variable. • Multifocal power profiles vary significantly between lens types. • Negative spherical aberration found in most lens types increases the risk of myopia progression.
