영문 초록

Purpose: To investigate the clinical features and compliance of cosmetic contact lens (CL)-related complications compared with soft CL-related complications. Methods: We performed a retrospective chart review of 97 patients (194 eyes) regarded as having CL-related complications at the outpatient clinic. The portion of complications, gender, age, and chief complaints at the initial visit were analyzed, as was compliance to cosmetic and soft CL-related guidelines for use. Results: A total of 97 patients (49 patients with cosmetic CL-related complications and 43 patients with soft CL-related complications) were evaluated. The mean age of the subjects using cosmetic CL was 19.8 years (14-31 years), and all the patients were female. The chief complaints at the initial visit included ocular pain, injection, blurred vision, dryness, itching and foreign body sensation. The main complications included corneal erosion, sterile corneal infiltrate, allergic disease, neovascularization, corneal ulcer and dry eye syndrome. No statistical difference was found regarding chief complaints or complications. The proportion of patients lost to follow-up was 47% in cosmetic CL-related and 20% in soft CL-related complications, a significant difference (p = 0.015). Conclusions: Because young females are the most common CL patients and do not always fully comply with the guidelines for use, ophthalmologists need to warn these patients about the risk of serious complications.J Korean Ophthalmol Soc 2014;55(10):1445-1451
