Abstract
The great potential of contact lenses for improving vision in all forms of corneal irregularities, e. g. keratoconus, after keratoplasty, after keratitis, is in danger of being forgotten. Especially by the younger generation of ophthalmologists and opticians there is a risk that the skill of fitting contact lenses professionally will be lost. There are many situations in which the practicing ophthalmologist should recognize that the contact lens can be a useful option for the visual rehabilitation of his patient. In this article, we provide a summary of "The basics of practical contact lens fitting". The first part is about materials, fields of application and differences in optics compared to glasses.
