In which situation might Dynamic stabilization by Weicon be utilized?

Dynamic stabilization by Weicon is primarily utilized for alleviating astigmatism with soft lenses. This technique is designed to enhance the stability of the lens on the eye, helping to ensure that the lens maintains its correct position and alignment. When patients have astigmatism, it is crucial for the lens to remain stable to provide clear and comfortable vision. Dynamic stabilization techniques involve specific design features in the lens that allow it to adjust to the eye's movements while keeping the optical zone aligned with the corneal curvature.

Fitting rigid gas permeable lenses, treating severe dry eye syndrome, or adjusting prescription strength do not specifically rely on dynamic stabilization methods. While there are other techniques used for those conditions, dynamic stabilization is particularly tailored to manage astigmatism effectively in soft lenses. This targeted application demonstrates its importance in ensuring optimal visual outcomes for patients with this refractive error.
