So I spent a lot of time focusing on the math around k values and lacremal lenses and vertex distances. but then I got stumped on questions like "what contacts would best match this rx and lifestyle." and all the stuff about the equipment used to verify contacts and fittings.
this was really a hail mary for me because im moving to FL in a couple of months. ive been with my company for 9 years and an abo certified fulltime optician for 6 years. but ive literally never had to handle contacts. Im currently in a non licensed state tho. so Im nervous about the culture shock that will be. at the same time I find comfort in my vocation. a lot of focus is business centered but my optical base keeps my going. failing the NCLE was a kick in the teeth. but I feel like I should actually get some hands on time with contacts and equipment before I test again.
SO any feedback is welcomed but im looking for books to buy; advice from ppl that have made a shift from non licensed states to licensed state. advice about the NCLE. also I get that GP lenses dont need to correct coreneal astigmatism but when do you start adding half the cyl for spherical equivalent in soft lenses.
please feel free to PM me
