An observational study of changes in corneal parameters following use of soft contact lens and rigid gas permeable lens

Abstract: Background: There have been significant advancements in contact lens designs and materials over the past few decades, the lenses still represent a foreign body in the ocular environment and may lead to physiological (corneal oedema or thinning) as well as mechanical (on corneal curvature) effects on the eye.As there are not many studies reporting the effect of contact lens on eyes in Indian population, this study was designed tofill the lacunae of knowledge in this context.Aims and Objective: To evaluate and c… Show more

“…and after 1month", pre session value was 0.33±0.12 compared to follow up "0.15±0.09 and 0.12±0.09" respectively, there was statistically significant improvement in follow up compared to pre session with p-value 0.05). This was consistent with what was proved by other studies done by Mayuri and Gautam 17 whose study was on 100 eyes of 100 patients, Sirisha and Chowdary 22 whose study was on 160 eyes, 95% of the patients studied had visual improvement, Chandrakar et al 23 & Cevher et al 20 .…”

“…Chandrakar et al 23 observational study at Venu Institute of Eye and Research Center in New Delhi studied 100 pairs of eyes from November 2014 to May 2016. Sixty-four percent of persons reported an increase in IOP, with 59 percent seeing a decrease in blood pressure of less than 5 mm Hg and just 5% experiencing a greater than 5 mm Hg increase in blood pressure.…”
