The CIE rates of 0.4% and 0% with these DD lenses are significantly lower than rates reported with reusable SCLs (3%-4%/y), indicating improved safety outcomes with these DD lenses. Compared to unaffected wearers, SiHyDD lens wearers with AEs requiring clinical visits were significantly older. (ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT01467557.).

Continuous wear of the tisilfocon A (Menicon Z, Menicon Co., Ltd., Nagoya, Japan) RGP lens for up to 30 nights is a safe and equivalent alternative to 7-day (6-night) hydrogel wear.

On the basis of this study, CW of the Menicon Z hyper-Dk/t RGP lens provides a safe and full-time vision correction alternative for patients who can adapt to RGP lens wear.
