Hypnosis and suggestion for fitting contact lenses
Abstract:
Language is important in the creation of a painful or non-painful context for fitting contact lenses. This article discusses two types of language use and demonstrates the consequent experience each creates for the patient. The authors also emphasize the importance of acceptance and utilization of responses offered by the patient to further the goals of a comfortable fitting experience. Finally, this article provides an example of a reliable and successful technique for rapidly inducing hypnosis for the purpose of obtaining a comfortable lens fitting.
