plana(mais aberta) / central(mais fechada)


Explanation:
Opção.

Curvas básicas das lentes de contato: central(mais fechada) e plana(mais aberta)

- A lente Ultracone possui um desenho asférico único programado por computador que simula a topografia do ceratocone com diversas curvaturas asféricas interligadas, sendo que basicamente somente duas curvas básicas são solicitadas, a central (mais apertada) e a segunda curva (mais plana). As demais curvaturas são introduzidas por um processo único e especial que requer cálculos de milésimos de milímetros, que possibilitam a Ultracone ter uma excelente performance .
