Initial parameters of the refractive corrections.

Radius of curvature, mm Conic constant Refractive index Distance, mm
Spectacles
 Anterior surface (Variable) –(1/ncorr) (Zadnik, Barr, & Edrington, 1998) 1.510 2.000
 Posterior surface 100 –(ncorr/nair) (Zadnik, Barr, & Edrington, 1998) 1.000 12.000
Scleral lenses
 Anterior surface (Variable) –(1/ncorr) (Zadnik, Barr, & Edrington, 1998) 1.415 0.300
 Posterior surface 7.20 –(ncorr/ntears) (Zadnik, Barr, & Edrington, 1998) 1.3368 (Patel, Boyd, & Burns, 2000) 0.325

ncorr = refractive index of corrective lens; ntears = refractive index of tear fluid; nair = refractive index of air.
