mcldan #1 / 8	Can plus lens wearers soft contact lens? Can a person who has a plus of +6.50 wear soft contact lens? What does +6.50 correspond in regards to the Snellan chart? Can a person who has had a catarcat extraction with no IOL lense implant wear contacts? Charles

There are lots of +6.50 contact lenses. Quote: > What does +6.50 correspond in regards to the Snellan chart? Refractive error cannot be converted to aided or unaided acuity. You will need to ask your eye doctor to measure your Snellen acuity. Quote: > Can a person who has had a catarcat extraction with no IOL lense implant > wear contacts? Yes, rigid gas perm, regular soft and extended wear soft are all available in high plus. Before IOLs I had a thriving post cataract contact lens fitting practice. But, again, refractive error is not the limiting factor. Dr Judy

With lower success rates than minus powers. One reason is that it is difficult see the lens when handling and during insertion and removal. Motivation becomes an issue in lower plus powers.
