Classification of slit lamp findings - German / russian & bulgarian edition


Up to date knowledge and literature of the anterior segment of the eye is an essential tool for professional contact lens fitting. The text book Classification of slit lamp findings is one of the best seller text books in that field. The first edition (2001) was published in German language and Japanese language as well. For eye care practitioners in a commercial environment, it is essential to have access to educational material in there own language. The JENVIS Research team around Prof. Wolfgang Sickenberger contributes to meet this need with a new printed Russian and Bulgarian edition about contact lens related slit lamp findings and its classification. Mr. Ildar Ilyasov in Russia and Dr. Mila Dragomirova in Bulgaria were coordinating the translation. Together with the JenVis classification Scores (available in 7 different languages) this text book will help to supports contact lens fitters in their daily work with the customers.
 

The optometric examination


The profession of the optician is changing. Today, optometry is taught at technical colleges and universities of applied sciences in accordance with international standards. A textbook accompanying the studies was missing until now. This work closes the gap and deals with the most important examinations for the examination of visual functions and screening for abnormalities of the eye. This book was written under the direction of editor Holger Dietze in cooperation with Wolfgang Sickenberger and Sebastian Marx, among others.

Jenvis Grading Scale


The JENVIS Grading Scale is used for uniform and clear diagnostic findings and documentation of the anterior segment of the eye. With the help of a classification system (grade 0 to grade 4) and meaningful diagnostic images, a decision on the extent of an abnormality can be made quickly and in high quality. Subsequent interventions and their effects can be checked and evaluated. The JENVIS Grading Scale is therefore a helpful tool for everyday practice as well as science and research.
