The Bio-Cor collagen shield (Bausch and Lomb, Rochester, NY) is thought to speed corneal epithelial healing and is available in dissolution rates of 12, 24, and 72 hours to suit the needs of the patient. It often is recommended over soft hydrophilic therapeutic lenses for short-term use, such as
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate and compare the in vitro effectiveness of multipurpose contact lens solutions (MPDS) to inhibit fungal colonization of Food and Drug Administration (FDA) contact lens groups.
METHODS
Contact lenses from FDA groups I (low water content, nonionic), II (high water content,
OBJECTIVE
To design a contact lens to treat and prevent fungal ocular infections.
METHODS
Curved contact lenses were created by encapsulating econazole-impregnated poly(lactic-co-glycolic) acid (PLGA) films in poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (pHEMA) by ultraviolet photopolymerization. Release
The lens is the second most powerful structure for refraction in the eye, and is important in the fine-focusing ability in individual species. Specific disorders of the feline lens are frequent in clinical practice and include: congenital anomalies, nuclear sclerosis, cataracts, lens subluxations
The conjunctival and contact lens bacterial flora in a group of 63 patients continuously wearing hydrophilic lenses for therapeutic reasons are reported. Thirty-three patients received topical antibiotics both before and during lens wear. There were no significant differences between the flora on
Contact lenses (CLs) are increasingly being used for cosmetic or therapeutic purposes. Lack of compliance and poor hygiene towards lens care is strongly associated with microbial contamination and has been proved to result in eye infections. The present study was done to compare the Introduction: To compare the safety and efficacy of the Therapeutic Hyper-CL™ lens versus a standard bandage contact lens (PureVision B&L) for chronic corneal edema.
Methods:
The authors present a therapeutical method of vitreoretinal surgery that solved a particular case of posterior posttraumatic lens dislocation.
OBJECTIVE
To describe a rare case of bilateral Candida keratitis after contact lens use following bilateral penetrating keratoplasty (PK).
METHODS
A 40-year-old female with a clinical diagnosis of Sjögren's syndrome was being followed for corneal thinning in both eyes. She suffered a spontaneous
