Key Points

This research aims to examine the effects of Bausch and Lomb SOFLENS Contact Lenses on corneal thickness.
Monitored central and peripheral corneal thickness
Utilized Bausch and Lomb SOFLENS® Contact Lenses
Generalized swelling observed in both central and peripheral cornea
No significant spectacle blur noted
No changes in corneal curvature detected

Implication

Monitoring corneal thickness shows swelling in both central and peripheral cornea, indicating lens impact.

Abstract

Central and peripberal corneal thickness was monitored during the wearing of Bauscb and Lomb SOFLENS® Contact Lenses. The results showed that a generalized and equal swelling occurred in the central and peripheral cornea. This generalized swelling explains the absence of significant spectacle blur and/or changes in corneal curvature.
