Apparatus and method for producing contact lenses precisely fitted to the eye including the steps of preparing a phtographic profile of the anterior surface of the eye from the axis thereof radially outwardly to or past the limbal area, the photographic profile having a known, exacting proportional size relationship to the eye; enlarging the photographic profile by a predetermined, precise degree; superimposing upon the enlarged profile any desired, corrective radius to produce a composite curve; preparing a template in precise conformity with the composite curve; and generating anterior and posterior surfaces on a contact lens by use of the template, the posterior surface of the contact lens being fitted to any degree of precision desired to the anterior surface of the eye to which it is to be applied.
