Abstract
The contact lens wearers refractive error is neutralized by two separate systems. Analysis of each of these two systems of correcting lenses can tell much about the anatomy and physiology of the eye and the visual systems. Analysis of these two system and the results of testing any change in the correcting lenses or the visual acuity resulting will give a new dimension to diagnosis. Of most importance is the interplay between the two correcting or neutralizing systems.
