  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

We studied the corneal endothelium by specular microscopy in two cases who had been using hard contact lenses for the past 20 years. Both cases, a 38-year-old male and 56-year-old female, were free of clinical symptoms. When evaluated for average cellsize, variation and frequency of hexagonal cells, the four eyes were judged as significantly pathological except for average cell size in one eye in the second case. The finding seemed to suggest the posibility of insidious damage to the corneal endothelium in longterm wearers of hard contact lens. We advocate examination by specular microscopy while prescrib-ing contact lenses.
