title: "Minor" application of soft contact lenses.
abstract: Some of the minor applications of soft contact lenses are believed to be more important than was hitherto thought. Soft contact lenses may be used to potentiate the therapeutic action of drugs, for the pleoptic treatment of ambylopic patients, for determining the visual field in aphakia and high myopia, and for the treatment of corneal wounds and descemetocoele.
