  • Title: Optical power calculation for contact lens wet cells.
    Author: Yumori RW, Mandell RB.
    Journal: Am J Optom Physiol Opt; 1981 Aug; 58(8):637-9. PubMed ID: 7282882.
    Abstract:
    Calculations show that there can be a significant error in the estimated power of a hydrogel lens when standard techniques are used to arrive at the lens power by means of a lensometer and a wet cell. Ray-tracing procedures were used to produce graphs which provide more accurate correction factors so that the lens power can be determined with improved precision.
