The effect of the optical design of multifocal contact lenses on choroidal thickness. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Studies have found reduced myopia progression with multifocal contact lenses, albeit with an unclear mechanism behind their protective effect. It is hypothesized that the induced myopic defocus of the addition zones of the multifocal contact lenses leads

Terahertz-based system for dehydration analysis of hydrogel contact lenses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The use of terahertz-based techniques has grown very fast since they are capable of performingevaluations at molecular level, being very suitable for the analysis of biological samples and bioma-terials such as those for contact lenses.

Effect of Deposition and Protease Digestion on the Ex Vivo Activity of Antimicrobial Peptide-Coated Contact Lenses

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2023
A clinical study of antimicrobial contact lenses containing the cationic peptide Mel4 was conducted. The few adverse events that occurred with this lens occurred on or after 13 nights of wear.

Contact lens in keratoconus

open access: yesIndian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2013
Contact lenses are required for the visual improvement in patients with keratoconus. Various contact lens options, such as rigid gas permeable (RGP) lenses, soft and soft toric lenses, piggy back contact lenses (PBCL), hybrid lenses and scleral lenses ...

Stretchable electronic platform for soft and smart contact lens applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A stretchable platform with spherical-shaped electronics based on thermo- plastic polyurethane (TPU) is introduced for soft smart contact lenses. The low glass transition temperature of TPU, its relatively low hardness, and its proven biocompatibility (

Updates on Optical Strategies of Myopia Control

open access: yesJournal of Modern Rehabilitation, 2022
Myopia has become a pandemic disease in the past few years and its sight-threatening consequences associated with high myopia have been a challenging issue for most public health societies. Controlling myopia progression has also become a global concern

Scleral Contact Lenses

open access: yesDelhi Journal of Ophthalmology, 2013
Contact lenses are classified on the basis of the bearing zone area as Corneal, Corneo-scleral and Scleral lenses. Scleral lenses are large in diameter (18 - 23mm) and have a bearing completely on sclera.
