Diagnostic and corrective apparatus and method
This disclosure describes systems and methods which utilize outcomes analysis, empirical and on-eye diagnostic fitting outcomes, and similar patient data to determine and provide a relatively optimal corrective device for the patient, in a single-use and disposable set of devices.
1. A system for determining an optimal contact lens, said system comprising:
a plurality of diagnostic contact lenses to be successively placed on a single eye, each of said plurality of contact lenses differing in at least one parameter such that each of said plurality of contact lenses is operable to provide different patient-specific data when inserted in an eye of a user, said plurality of contact lenses consisting of one contact lens selected based upon empirical data obtained from said single eye, and at least one contact lens selected based upon data of third-party optimal fits;
alpha numeric indicators operable to indicate the chronology to successively place said plurality of contact lenses on said single eye.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein said plurality of contact lenses comprises 2 to 6 contact lenses.
3. The system of claim 1 , wherein said plurality of contact lenses differ in a plurality of parameters.
4. The system of claim 1 , said parameter comprising one of a spherical correction and cylindrical correction.
