2011, OptometryCitation Excerpt :Ginsburg20 also showed that higher spatial frequencies will be affected before lower spatial frequencies by changes in target distance, movement direction, and low illumination. Contrast sensitivity also may be degraded in contact lens wearers if lens fit or water content are not optimal for the patient, resulting in corneal edema even when SVA seems acceptable.21 Finally, contrast sensitivity can increase or decrease after refractive surgery.22
Central and peripheral visual performance in myopes: Contact lenses versus spectacles
2011, Contact Lens and Anterior EyeCitation Excerpt :The majority of studies considering this subject were undertaken in the 1980's or before, when soft contact lenses were either spun cast or lathe cut, and suffered from poor homogeneity and surface quality [18]. Lens materials also had lower oxygen transmissibility than modern lenses, giving rise to the potential for corneal oedema and a subsequent reduction in contrast sensitivity [38]. Lens designs, materials and manufacturing techniques have improved significantly over the last two decades and daily disposable soft contact lenses account for close to 60% of the UK contact lens market (ACLM report 2009), because of their convenience and the absence of deposit problems [39].
