Corneal Thickness Changes as a Contact Lens Fitting Index—experimental Results and a Proposed Model

Key Points

• Examine how wearing contact lenses affects corneal thickness and hydration, providing a fitting index.
• Conducted experimental analysis on corneal thickness changes
• Monitored changes in corneal hydration during contact lens wear
• Developed a proposed model based on observed data
• Findings indicate significant changes in corneal thickness with contact lens use
• Alterations in corneal hydration are noted, highlighting physiological impacts
• Proposed model offers a new index for effective contact lens fitting
