Contact lens-related complications are common, affecting around one third of wearers,
although most are mild and easily managed. Contact lenses have well-defined anatomical …

Scleral lenses were the first type of contact lens, developed in the late nineteenth century to
restore vision and protect the ocular surface. With the advent of rigid corneal lenses in the …

This paper outlines changes to the ocular surface caused by contact lenses and their degree
of clinical significance. Substantial research and development to improve oxygen …

Scleral lenses (SLs) present several unique advantageous characteristics for patients. As
these lenses are mainly fitted in severely diseased eyes, a thorough evaluation of the ocular …

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of altering the fluid reservoir
thickness on central corneal edema during short-term open-eye scleral lens wear and to …

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to examine the magnitude and regional variation
in corneal edema after a short period of scleral lens wear in post–penetrating keratoplasty …

Purpose To examine the relationship between central post-lens fluid reservoir thickness and
central corneal oedema during short-term closed eye scleral lens wear, and to compare …

Purpose To quantify the magnitude of central and peripheral scleral lens‐induced corneal
oedema for a range of fluid reservoir thicknesses, and to compare these experimental …

Purpose: To examine the relationship between lens thickness and central corneal edema
during short-term open-eye scleral lens wear, and to compare these empirical edema …

Detailed clinical assessment is critical to allow sensitive evaluation of the eye and its
management. As technology advances, these assessment techniques can be adapted and …
