To assess and compare retention, application characteristics, and patient tolerance of nine bandage contact lens types from four manufacturers.
Six research Beagles were used in this pilot study.
Five bandage contact lens types from two veterinary brands and four bandage contact lens types from two human brands were evaluated in six research Beagles. Placement ease, the dogs' contact lens tolerance, and contact lens retention time for up to 14 days were recorded. Statistical analysis with a linear mixed model was performed.
Veterinary contact lenses had an average retention time of 0.4 days (range 0-7 days, with an average of 10% and 3% retained ≥1 and ≥7 days, respectively), while human contact lenses had a significantly (P < 0.0001) longer average retention time of 5.2 days (range 0-14 days, with an average of 83% and 37.5% retained ≥1 and ≥7 days, respectively). Specifically, Johnson and Johnson Vision Care Acuvue® Oasys™ with Hydraclear™ Plus lenses were retained significantly longer than all veterinary lenses, and Bausch and Lomb PureVision® 2 lenses were retained significantly longer than Keragenix HydroBlues™ 18 and AnimaLens™ HRT 78 18 mm lenses.
Although all bandage contact lenses were easy to use and well tolerated by the dogs, the human lenses were retained significantly better and longer than the veterinary lenses. Additionally, human lenses were retained significantly better and longer than veterinary lenses of similar measurements. This suggests factors other than measurement and associated fit may determine contact lens retention time.
评估并比较来自四个制造商的九种绷带式隐形眼镜的佩戴情况、使用特性及患者耐受性。
本初步研究使用了六只实验用比格犬。
对来自两个兽医品牌的五种绷带式隐形眼镜和来自两个人类品牌的四种绷带式隐形眼镜在六只实验用比格犬身上进行评估。记录放置的难易程度、犬对隐形眼镜的耐受性以及长达14天的隐形眼镜佩戴时间。采用线性混合模型进行统计分析。
兽医专用隐形眼镜的平均佩戴时间为0.4天（范围为0 - 7天，分别有10%和3%的隐形眼镜佩戴≥1天和≥7天），而人类专用隐形眼镜的平均佩戴时间显著更长（P < 0.0001），为5.2天（范围为0 - 14天，分别有83%和37.5%的隐形眼镜佩戴≥1天和≥7天）。具体而言，强生视力健公司的爱尔康水润氧®欧舒适™含Hydraclear™ Plus镜片的佩戴时间显著长于所有兽医专用镜片，博士伦公司的纯视2®镜片的佩戴时间显著长于柯拉杰尼克斯水蓝™ 18和动物视™ HRT 78 18毫米镜片。
尽管所有绷带式隐形眼镜使用起来都很方便，且犬的耐受性良好，但人类专用镜片的佩戴效果显著优于且长于兽医专用镜片。此外，人类专用镜片在尺寸相近的情况下，佩戴效果显著优于且长于兽医专用镜片。这表明除了尺寸和相关适配性之外，其他因素可能决定隐形眼镜的佩戴时间。
