円錐角膜4例6眼に,ディスポーザブルソフトコンタクトレンズ(以下DSCL)とハードコンタクトレンズ(以下HCL)の組合せ処方(piggyback lens system)を行った。そして,処方時,処方1年前および1年後の角膜形状をコニコイド曲線X2+(Q+1) Y2−2RY=0に近似し,円錐角膜形状異常程度を表すlndex K=−(Q/R)×103で円錐角膜形状の変化を評価した。その結果,1年間のIndex Kの変化量はpiggyback lens sys-temで−138.8±122.0,HGL単独装用で−64.2±88.6となり,DSCLを用いたpiggyback lenssystemの角膜形状改善効果は,少なくともHCL単独装用に匹敵するものと思われた。
We treated 6 eyes with keratoconus using a piggyback system with disposable soft contact lens. The corneal shape after 1 year of wearing was compared with that at the time of prescription and one year before when a conventional hard contact lens was in use. The corneal shape was expressed by an index K, or-(Q/R)×103, which was obtained by approximating the corneal shape to a conicoid curve: X2+(Q+1) Y2-2RY=0. The index K during the period of hard contact wear was-64.2±88.6 and that during piggyback lens system wear was-138±122.0. The results indicate that the piggyback lens system is comparable to hard contact lens alone regarding the beneficial effect on the corneal shape in keratoconus.
