Ok. My question concerns high cylinders in best form lenses. Tschernings ellipse covers sphere correction, and Vogels formula gives an approximate result to the ellipse. We use these to make the best lenses we can. USing spherical equivalent we can usually keep the ocular surface between 4 and 7 diopters. What say you regarding high cylinders? DO you use spherical equivalent? ex: pl - 12 do you call that sph equivalent of -6 and put it on a 3 base? or +10 - 10 does that go on an 11 base? are there better or more practical solutions than this? I haven't come acoss many references regarding high cyl. Atorics would be best im sure but we don't have that capability yet. If you know of references I can purchase please suggest them. Wes
