Abstract

This review is intended to give supportive information for beginners in contact lens fitting who are interested in providing a quality-related service to customers and patients. In Germany the proportion of contact lens wearers is significantly lower than in most other countries; therefore, there is a potentially fast growing market. The aim of this paper is to provide comprehensive guidelines for practitioners to develop and improve contact lens fitting practice and minimize unnecessary or preventable complications. The fundamental requirement for starting in contact lens fitting is to have correct education in the field and for the practice to be appropriately equipped. The key to providing a safe a reliable contact lens fitting practice is to continually update knowledge in the field and to maintain the practice to the highest professional standards.
