Piggy back with Kerasoft?

Postby dalbeath » Fri 02 Sep 2011 9:52 pm

Does anyone wear piggy back lenses with a Kerasoft and a RGP?

If so how long have you being doing this for and any problems to date?

Thanks

Can I ask if you are already doing this or want to know if its possible?

KeraSoft is supplied as a stand alone lens and it is not often used in a piggy backing system.Therefore, it is unlikely to be very many people out there who are using it in this way.

If you are doing this and are having problems or want to know what possible problems there might be, then you really are best going back and discussing this with your practitioner. No two eyes with KC are alike (even on the same person!) and a problem one person may have may be something another person would never experience, due to the complete difference in status of eye conditions.
