Although occlusion eye patches are effective for the treatment of amblyopia, many physical difficulties arise such as allergic reactions of the skin and unattractiveness. Thus, in dealing with these problems we developed the occlusion extended-wear soft contact lens (OCL) to be used as a substitute for the eye patches. With these OCL, patients benefited from the 24-hour occlusion instead of the 6- or 8-hourly eye patch. Although there was a slight possibility that corneal problems might arise due to the lens, the amblyopia patients who gave up the eye patch treatment responded positively to the OCL treatment.
尽管眼罩对弱视治疗有效，但会出现许多身体方面的问题，如皮肤过敏反应和外观不佳。因此，为了解决这些问题，我们研发了用于替代眼罩的长效遮盖软性接触镜（OCL）。使用这种OCL，患者能够获得24小时的遮盖效果，而不是每天6或8小时使用眼罩。尽管佩戴这种镜片可能会有轻微的角膜问题，但放弃眼罩治疗的弱视患者对OCL治疗反应良好。
