RGP Lens Fitting Made Easy | Base Curve Selection, mm–Diopter Conversion & Fluorescein Patterns
In this video, I explain RGP (Rigid Gas Permeable) contact lens fitting in a simple, practical, and easy-to-understand way. This tutorial is designed for optometry students, practitioners, and anyone who wants to strengthen their understanding of RGP lens fitting.
📌 Topics Covered:
• How to select the appropriate base curve for an RGP lens
• Conversion of millimeters (mm) into diopters (D)
• Conversion of diopters (D) into millimeters (mm)
• Understanding RGP fluorescein patterns
• Apical Clearance – Steep Fit
• Apical Bearing – Flat Fit
• Apical Alignment – Optimal/Ideal Fit
• Clinical interpretation of fluorescein patterns for proper RGP lens fitting
By the end of this video, you will have a clearer understanding of how base curve selection and fluorescein assessment help determine an appropriate RGP lens fit.
