How to choose the right corneal contact lens?

Contact lens is a common tool for correcting vision, which can correct visual problems such as myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism. However, it is not easy to choose a suitable corneal contact lens. In Dalian He's Eye Hospital, we provide you with professional corneal contact lens services. We will elaborate on how to select the appropriate corneal contact lens from the following four aspects: applicable population, lens material, optimal lens curvature and correct use.

First of all, you must consider your own vision when choosing a suitable corneal contact lens. Contact lenses are usually suitable for myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism. For those patients with high myopia or special conditions such as corneal deformation, corneal shaping lenses can be selected for correction. In addition, whether it is suitable to wear contact lenses should also take into account personal use habits, eye health and doctor's recommendations.

In Dalian He's Eye Hospital, our doctors will carry out detailed eye examinations according to your personal conditions and provide personalized corneal contact lens options.

Lens material

The lens material of the corneal contact lens is also one of the important factors to be considered when selecting. Common corneal contact lens materials include hard corneal contact lens and soft corneal contact lens. Hard corneal contact lens has good air permeability, but it is hard and less comfortable; Soft contact lenses are soft and comfortable, but their air permeability is relatively poor. According to personal dehydration, sensitivity and eye health, the doctor will recommend suitable lens materials for you.

Optimum lens curvature

The best lens curvature should also be considered when selecting the appropriate corneal contact lens. Everyone's cornea shape is different, so it is necessary to choose the appropriate lens curvature according to the curvature of the eyeball. For example, if the cornea is steep, choosing a flat lens curvature can reduce the discomfort of the eyes. In Dalian He's Ophthalmology Hospital, we have advanced corneal topographic map detection equipment, which can accurately measure your corneal curvature and customize appropriate lenses for you.

Proper use

Finally, the correct use of corneal contact lens is the key to ensure the effect of vision correction and eye health. Keep good hand hygiene and avoid bacterial infection when wearing and removing lenses. In addition, the lenses should be cleaned and replaced regularly, and the doctor's advice should be followed for inspection and maintenance. If there are red eyes, pain, blurred vision and other uncomfortable symptoms, you must seek medical advice in time.

In conclusion, the selection of suitable corneal contact lenses requires comprehensive consideration of the applicable population, lens material, optimal lens curvature and correct use.
