Effect of soft contact lens on central visual field

Effect of soft contact lens on central visual field The effect of soft contact lenses (CLs) and spectacles on central visual fields was assessed in 48 eyes. Forty-three eyes (89.5%) showed smaller pattern standard deviation in CL wearers than five eyes (10.5%) with spectacles. In addition, 38 CL wearers (79%) showed higher positive mean deviation values than 10 eyes (20.8%) with spectacles. Findings indicate the pattern of visual fields shifts toward normalcy in CL wearers. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Annals of Ophthalmology Springer Journals

Abstract

The effect of soft contact lenses (CLs) and spectacles on central visual fields was assessed in 48 eyes. Forty-three eyes (89.5%) showed smaller pattern standard deviation in CL wearers than five eyes (10.5%) with spectacles. In addition, 38 CL wearers (79%) showed higher positive mean deviation values than 10 eyes (20.8%) with spectacles. Findings indicate the pattern of visual fields shifts toward normalcy in CL wearers.
