چکیده
|
Corneal ulcers are a major cause of blindness worldwide. a recent eye health care concern is the increasing incidence of contact lens induced corneal ulcers. delay in the diagnosis and management of corneal ulcers can cause severe visual loss, therefore an early ophthalmologist visit and timely administration of antimicrobial agents can prevent visual loss. factors associated with increased risk of contact lens related corneal ulcers include overnight wear, long duration of continuous wear, lower socioeconomic status, smoking, dry eye and poor hygiene.
