A contact lens for endothelial and epithelial specular microscopy.
A contact lens that facilitates specular microscopy of the corneal endothelium and epithelium with a standard slitlamp is described. It prevents blur from the superficial tear-film reflex, offers a wide field of specular illumination, and magnifies the field two times.
