Intraocular pressure following long-term scleral lens wear in Chinese eyes
On average, IOP remained stable (mean changes < ± 0.3 mmHg) in Chinese participants with regular and irregular corneas following three months of scleral lens wear. Future long-term scleral lens studies examining changes in IOP with the lens in situ (e.g., using pneumotonometry), anterior chamber anatomy, or optic nerve parameters in Chinese populations are warranted given the higher prevalence of glaucoma in Asian eyes.
