Contact lens-related problems are common and can result in severe sight-threatening
complications or contact lens drop out if not addressed properly. We systematically reviewed …

Within a few minutes of wear, contact lenses become rapidly coated with a variety of tear film
components, including proteins, lipids, and mucins. Tears have a rich and complex …

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 …

Purpose. We sought to determine whether there were differences in lysozyme (quantity and
conformation) and lipid deposition on in vivo worn conventional (etafilcon) and silicone …

Objective To investigate the incidence of adverse events related to the use of varying
silicone hydrogel contact lens and lens solution combinations. Methods Individuals with …

PURPOSE: To assess the relative risks of acute, nonulcerative complications with recently
introduced contact lens (CL) wear modalities (compared with the previously most common …

Purpose to evaluate changes in tear metrics and ocular signs induced by six months of
silicone-hydrogel contact lens wear and the difference in baseline characteristics between …

Purpose. To investigate the short-term physiologic response to three soft lens materials with
different oxygen permeability characteristics. Methods. Forty-three neophytes were randomly …

Giant papillary conjunctivitis (GPC), which is characterized by the development of “giant”
papillae on the superior tarsal conjunctiva, is a common complication in contact lens …

Purpose. To determine whether differences in lysozyme deposition and/or activity exist on
worn etafilcon and balafilcon contact lenses following care with a polyquaternium-based …
