Corneal 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 کاملCorneal response to short-term orthokeratology lens wear.
PURPOSE This study investigated short-term corneal changes induced by reverse-geometry lenses worn for orthokeratology. METHODS Nine young adult subjects wore reverse-geometry rigid gas-permeable lenses (BE; UltraVision Contact Lenses, Brisbane, Australia) in one eye only for 10, 30, and 60 min in the open eye and 8 h in the closed eye. The fellow eye acted as a non-lens-wearing control. Corn...
متن کاملCorneal response to rigid contact lens wear.
Three adult rhesus monkeys were subjected to 2 and 24 hours of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) contact lens wear. The induced corneal changes were examined with the electron microscope. Mild epithelial oedema as well as early degenerative cell changes was present already after 2 hours' wear. Rigid lens wear for 24 hours produced more severe oedema and cell alterations together with premature cell...
متن کاملShort-term corneal changes with gas-permeable contact lens wear in keratoconus subjects: a comparison of two fitting approaches.
PURPOSE To evaluate changes in anterior corneal topography and higher-order aberrations (HOA) after 14-days of rigid gas-permeable (RGP) contact lens (CL) wear in keratoconus subjects comparing two different fitting approaches. METHODS Thirty-one keratoconus subjects (50 eyes) without previous history of CL wear were recruited for the study. Subjects were randomly fitted to either an apical-t...
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...
