OCT-Based Analysis of Post-Lens Tear Film Stability in Silicone Hydrogel Contact Lenses

A significant decrease in PLTF stability (NIAvgBUT) and PoLTF thickness in the central corneal area was observed after 2-4 weeks of CL use. These findings suggest that prolonged CL wear affects tear film stability and surface wettability, highlighting the importance of monitoring these changes over time.

Abstract

A significant decrease in PLTF stability (NIAvgBUT) and PoLTF thickness in the central corneal area was observed after 2-4 weeks of CL use. These findings suggest that prolonged CL wear affects tear film stability and surface wettability, highlighting the importance of monitoring these changes over time.
