Myopia Progression During Three Years of Soft Contact Lens Wear

Effect of dual-focus soft contact lens wear on axial myopia progression in children.

PURPOSE To test the efficacy of an experimental Dual-Focus (DF) soft contact lens in reducing myopia progression. DESIGN Prospective, randomized, paired-eye control, investigator-masked trial with cross-over. PARTICIPANTS Forty children, 11-14 years old, with mean spherical equivalent refraction (SER) of -2.71 ± 1.10 diopters (D). METHODS Dual-Focus lenses had a central zone that correcte...

Soft contact lens wear at altitude: effects of hypoxia.

In the U.S. Air Force, aircraft can be divided into two categories--those with cabin pressures equivalent to high altitudes and aircraft with cabin pressures equivalent to lower altitudes, with longer duration exposures. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of soft contact lens wear under atmospheric pressures simulating these two types of aircraft environments. Ten subjects w...
