Standardized rigid contact lens fitting protocol for keratoconus

Keratoconus is typically managed by a variety of rigid contact lens fitting techniques and lens designs. The two most fundamental fitting techniques are apical corneal touch (including divided or three-point touch) and apical clearance. In the course of designing a multi-center study of keratoconus...
