Abstract

To evaluate pre-disposing factors for developing localized CLPC with high Dk silicone hydrogel extended wear (EW) lenses, subject and lens variables were studied in a retrospective case control study. It was found that greater tarsal conjunctival roughness at baseline and EW, tarsal conjunctival and bulbar hyperaemia, lens tightness and a lack of patency of meibomian orifices during EW are higher in patients that manifest localized CLPC.
