Dott. Pesi Leonardo — Optometrist · Custom contact lens fitting in Perugia and Città della Pieve
Areas of expertise
Dr Leonardo Pesi holds a degree in Optics and Optometry and works mainly in custom contact lens fitting. He practises as an independent professional and specialist consultant at the MediSport Center clinics in Perugia (San Sisto) and Città della Pieve (Po’ Bandino), where he is the reference practitioner for the design and fitting of customised contact lenses for complex corneas and for functional vision analysis.
His work is based on the geometric and morphological study of the ocular surface: on this basis he designs contact lens devices made to measure for the patient’s eye, including cases where standard contact lenses prove ineffective or poorly tolerated.
Clinical expertise and treatments
- Custom contact lenses for complex corneas
Design and fitting of customised contact lenses: thickness-profiled soft lenses, rigid gas-permeable (RGP) lenses and lenses for high astigmatism. Screening of corneal curvature and topography allows the lens geometry to be calibrated to irregular or asymmetrical ocular surfaces, for example after refractive surgery.
- Multifocal contact lenses
Fitting of custom progressive and multifocal contact lenses to compensate simultaneously for distance defects (myopia, hyperopia) and near defects (presbyopia), as an alternative to spectacles in daily life and sport.
- Optometric and refractive vision analysis
Quantitative assessment of refractive errors and evaluation of binocular visual efficiency, aimed at the prescription of corrective lenses and personalised spectacles.
