Abstract

Eight subjects were fitted with gas-permeable (Polycon) hard contact lenses of varying base curves (all other parameters constant) to study the effect of lens fit on corneal physiology. Other factors, besides base curve, that might affect oedema are considered using multiple regression analysis. Results are compared with those of similar studies using PMMA and soft (Durasoft) lenses.
