A retrospective study of disposable extended-wear lenses in 100 patients.

Abstract:

:A retrospective evaluation of 100 patients who wore disposable extended-wear contact lenses is presented. The patients were selected at random and were fitted with one of three lens brands approved for extended wear. There were 37 males and 63 females in the study. The mean age was 40.1 years (range, 14 to 76 years). Sixty-seven of the patients wore nondisposable extended-wear soft contact lenses before being fitted with disposable lenses. Complications were noted and included two instances of infectious ulcerative keratitis and six cases of peripheral corneal infiltrates. It is believed that the rate of complications is due to the ongoing hypoxic effect of prolonged use of extended-wear or other contact lenses and may be improved by providing a greater variety of lens fitting parameters. Disposable extended-wear lenses may be a reasonable means of vision correction in the appropriately selected patient and with proper follow-up. At the same time, caution should be exercised in the fitting and wear of disposable extended-wear lenses.
