The objective of this study was to analyze prospectively the continuous use of disposable contact lenses.
We conducted a clinical study of extended wear of disposable contact lenses for a period of 7 days and 6 nights by 25 patients during a 90-day period. Factors such as visual acuity, keratometry, complications, and contamination were analyzed.
Visual acuity and keratometry measurements did not present significant alterations during the study. Complications related to the use of disposable contact lenses were not observed. Analysis of cultures did not present any significant microbiological alterations due to contact lens use. All of the patients were satisfied with the wear schedule and considered the Acuvue lenses comfortable.
Our results may be useful in increasing the level of acceptance of extended wear of disposable contact lenses in Brazil.
本研究的目的是前瞻性地分析一次性隐形眼镜的持续使用情况。
我们对25名患者在90天内进行了为期7天6夜的一次性隐形眼镜延长佩戴临床研究。分析了诸如视力、角膜曲率测量、并发症和污染等因素。
在研究期间，视力和角膜曲率测量未出现显著变化。未观察到与使用一次性隐形眼镜相关的并发症。对培养物的分析未显示因使用隐形眼镜而出现任何显著的微生物学变化。所有患者对佩戴方案都很满意，并认为酷柏隐形眼镜佩戴舒适。
我们的结果可能有助于提高巴西对一次性隐形眼镜延长佩戴的接受程度。
