The majority of all research in the field of contact lenses has taken place in a normal, ground-level environment. The purpose of this study was to determine if any changes occurred in wearing hydrophilic soft lenses under conditions of low atmospheric pressures. The effects on visual acuity, refraction, keratometry, and biomicroscopy were investigated with eight naval volunteers while wearing soft contact lenses at simulated altitudes up to 30,000 ft (9144 m) in an aviation hypobaric chamber. The results indicated that the low atmospheric pressure at high atitude in itself did not affect the fit of soft contact lenses.
隐形眼镜领域的大部分研究都是在正常的地面环境中进行的。本研究的目的是确定在低气压条件下佩戴亲水性软性隐形眼镜是否会发生任何变化。在航空低压舱中，对八名海军志愿者在模拟高达30000英尺（9144米）的海拔高度佩戴软性隐形眼镜时的视力、验光、角膜曲率测量和生物显微镜检查的影响进行了研究。结果表明，高海拔处的低气压本身不会影响软性隐形眼镜的适配性。
