Adverse events in allergy sufferers wearing contact lenses
Allergy is the fifth leading chronic condition in industrialized countries among all ages, and the third most common chronic disease among children under 18 years old. Many of allergic patients also have problems with vision and want to improve their quality of life by wearing contact lenses. They are most frequently young and active individuals, for whom contact lenses provide greater convenie...
متن کاملBiomicroscopy of papillae associated with wearing of soft contact lenses.
We studied the topographical, macrostructural, and fluorescein staining characteristics of papillary changes of the upper tarsal conjunctiva associated with the wearing of hydrophilic (soft) contact lenses. Fifty soft contact lens wearers with elevated conjunctival papillae greater than 0.3 mm in diameter were studied. Topographic characteristics recorded were distribution and number of papilla...
متن کاملPower profiles of multifocal contact lenses and their interpretation.
PURPOSE Many contact lens (CL) manufacturers produce simultaneous-image lenses in which power varies either smoothly or discontinuously with zonal radius. We present in vitro measurements of some recent CLs and discuss how power profiles might be approximated in terms of nominal distance corrections, near additions, and on-eye visual performance. METHODS Fully hydrated soft, simultaneous-imag...
متن کاملLateral phoria at distance: contributions of accommodation.
Lateral heterophoria at distance often is cited as an index of tonic vergence, yet recent research has shown that vergence in darkness is more convergent than most measures of phoria. Two experiments were conducted to investigate the possible role of accommodation in this discrepancy. Experiment I compared measures of distance phoria of 19 young adults with measures of vergence and accommodatio...
متن کاملEvaluating the peripheral optical effect of multifocal contact lenses.
PURPOSE Multifocal soft contact lenses have been used to decrease the progression of myopia, presumably by inducing relative peripheral myopia at the same time as the central image is focused on the fovea. The aim of this study was to investigate how the peripheral optical effect of commercially available multifocal soft contact lenses can be evaluated from objective wavefront measurements. M...
