Contact lens wear is one of the relevant risk factors for dry eye, and the coexistence of dry eye poses a serious challenge in patients wearing contact lenses. The Tear Film and Ocular Surface Society Workshop addressed issues around the topic of discomfort in contact lens wear, which is a major cause for discontinuation of contact lens wear, and termed this condition as contact lens discomfort. With the rapid advances in contact lens technology and pharmacological agents and deeper understanding of this field, updating the "new normal" beyond what is known as standard is essential. This review aims to summarize the latest topics in contact lens and dry eye that would be useful for clinicians and contact lens practitioners.
隐形眼镜佩戴是干眼症的相关风险因素之一，而干眼症的并存给佩戴隐形眼镜的患者带来了严重的挑战。泪膜和眼表面学会研讨会讨论了与隐形眼镜佩戴不适相关的问题，这是导致隐形眼镜佩戴中断的主要原因，并将这种情况称为隐形眼镜不适。随着隐形眼镜技术和药物的快速发展以及对该领域的深入了解，更新超越所谓标准的“新常态”至关重要。本综述旨在总结隐形眼镜和干眼症的最新主题，这对临床医生和隐形眼镜从业者很有用。
