Insertion Bubbles

Insertion bubbles are common. To avoid, completely fill the bowl of the lens with solution prior to applying.

Excessive Apical Pressure

If excessive central touch and bubbles for in the scleral area, the lens is not properly aligned with the sclera but instead is rocking on the cornea. The wearer may also complain of edge awareness in this situation. To correct, increase the sag depth value.

Sag Value Too High

If bubbles form in the central zone of the lens, this means the sag depth value is too high. To correct this, reduce the sag depth value.

Small Bubbles

Small bubbles that move around are acceptable as long as they don’t cross over the pupil and interfere with vision. However, bubbles that are fairly stationary are not acceptable and the fit should be modified to eliminate them.

Excessive Mid-peripheral Clearance

When the proper sag depth value has been determined but bubbles still persist in the mid-peripheral/limbal zone clearance, keep the sagittal depth value the same, but choose a decreased mid-peripheral/limbal zone clearance value. 

Conjunctival Impingment

When conjunctival impingement occurs showing excessive blanching; order a lens with a flatter edge, either 1-Flat or 2-Flat. Depending on the lens diameter, increase the profile, increase the sag, or depending on the severity, consider all three options simultaneously.
