Corneal Biomechanical Findings in Contact Lens Induced Corneal Warpage
Purpose. To evaluate the difference in biomechanical properties between contact lens induced corneal warpage and normal and keratoconic eyes. Method. Prospective observational case control study, where 94 eyes of 47 warpage suspicious and 46 eyes of 23 keratoconic patients were included. Warpage suspected cases were followed until a definite diagnosis was made (warpage, normal, or keratoconus)....
متن کاملCorneal Biomechanical Changes Following Toric Soft Contact Lens Wear
PURPOSE To determine the effect of using toric soft contact lenses on corneal biomechanical properties. METHODS We enrolled 33 healthy patients with mean age of 23.18 ± 4.06 and minimal cylinder power of 1 D (-1.98 ± 0.808 SD) and negative history of contact lens use; keratoconic patients were excluded from the study. Toric soft contact lenses (BIOFINITY, Comfilcon A, Coopervision, Southampto...
متن کاملContact lens related corneal ulcer.
A corneal ulcer caused by infection is one of the major causes of blindness worldwide. One of the recent health concerns is the increasing incidence of corneal ulcers associated with contact lens user especially if the users fail to follow specific instruction in using their contact lenses. Risk factors associated with increased risk of contact lens related corneal ulcers are: overnight wear, l...
متن کاملCorneal endothelial polymegathism induced by PMMA contact lens wear.
Central corneal endothelial photographs were taken for 15 persons who had worn polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) contact lenses for 7-15 yr and for a nonwearing control group matched for age and sex. An individual cell area analysis was made from the cell tracings. Significant endothelial polymegathism was noted for each member of the contact lens wearing group. PMMA wearers showed an average coeff...
متن کاملContact lens rehabilitation following repaired corneal perforations
BACKGROUND Visual outcome following repair of post-traumatic corneal perforation may not be optimal due to presence of irregular keratometric astigmatism. We performed a study to evaluate and compare rigid gas permeable contact lens and spectacles in visual rehabilitation following perforating corneal injuries. METHOD Eyes that had undergone repair for corneal perforating injuries with or wit...
