[Anisomyopia]

During the application of contact lenses the author encountered anisometropia which she corrected in an attempt to reduce aniseikonia by hydrophilic contact lenses produced either in Ergon Prague or in Okula Nýrsko. She examined a total of more than 1,000 patients with anisometropia of more than 2 dpt. As an example she quotes several patients with different refraction who had the less ametropic eye fully corrected, while the other eye was corrected only partly. In complete correction with contact lenses in some instances the aniseikonia increased, while in case of complete correction by spectacle lenses it was not only well tolerated binocularily, but also a certain degree of binocular vision was achieved.
