In 2004 DOCET produced two Contact Lens CD-ROMs, Fitting Spherical Contact Lenses and Initial Consultation, which were intended to be the first in a series of four. Unfortunately, the company that DOCET commissioned to produce this series went out of business before CD-ROMs 3 and 4 were completed.
We are very happy to announce that we have now been able to complete CD-ROM 3: Aftercare and Solutions.
By the end of the Aftercare lesson users will be better able to:
- describe a competent aftercare routine
- diagnose a range of common contact lens related problems
- manage a range of common contact lens related problems
- identify risks associated with lens wear
By the end of the Solutions lesson users will be better able to:
- differentiate between the available solutions, and understand how they work
- describe the legal requirements in the UK for marketing solutions for use with contact lenses
- distinguish between soft and rigid lens solutions
- pass on the proper hygiene advice to their patients
CDs 1 and 2 can be purchased using the order form. CD-ROM 4, on Advanced Fitting, will be distributed in the next few months.
One CET point is available for CD3.
