Title

TREATMENT OF ASTIGMATISM WITH DISPOSABLE SOFT CONTACT LENSES

Abstract

In two studies that explored the myths and reality of CL fitting and wear, Ephron and colleagues argued about how practitioner and consumer attitudes change more slowly than technology and knowledge, which advance quite rapidly. 30 patients with soft toric lenses having more than 1.25 D of corneal astigmatism (25 eyes; Group A) or having 0.75–1.25 D of corneal astigmatism (22 eyes; Group B) and 30 patients with soft spheric lenses having 0.75–1.25 D of corneal astigmatism (28 eyes; Group C) or less than 0.75 D of corneal astigmatism (23 eyes; Group D) were included in the study. All patients had their biomicroscopic characteristics, autorefractometry, corneal topography, and corrected and uncorrected monocular visual acuity measured using logMAR both before and after putting in their contact lenses. Three metrics astigmatic neutralization, visual success, and retinal deviation were used to assess the effectiveness of the contact lens fitting. After soft toric lens application, spheric dioptres, cylindric and keratometric astigmatism, and retinal deviation reduced markedly in Groups A and B (P < 0.05). Group C had a reduction in spherical and retinal dioptres (P 0.05), but no change in cylindric or keratometric astigmatism (P > 0.05). Visual acuity and residual spherical equivalent refraction maintained within acceptable limits with the usage of toric and spheric contact lenses.
