Purpose: The aim of this work is to create a comprehensive logbook, based on with
information taken from the internet, articles and books. Moreover, another objective is
to analyze logbooks from other universities in Europe or some fitting sheets students
use in their labs that could be considered as a type of logbook. Furthermore, another
purpose is to create an own logbook as complete and detailed as possible.
Material and methods: Analyzing those fitting sheets and using further information
extracted from different articles and books used by contact lens specialists, it has been
created a comprehensive but still simple guide to contact lens fitting and
documentation.
Results: This is a fitting guide for all steps in contact lens fitting including indications,
contraindications and troubleshooting for various contact lenses and care products. An
own proposal of a logbook had been created regarding the practical usefulness for
students in the labs.
Discussion: While doing this project, it has been realized that the use of a personal
Logbook in the practices of optometry students it is still not very common in many
European universities, but it is used by many professionals in several fields as a guide,
to record and to be evaluated in the labs.
