Performance of a Toric, Monthly, Soft Contact Lens in Digital Device Users

Digital eye strain is something that affects most of us, yet we have limited data on how contact lens wearers fair when they regularly use devices for most of the day. Therefore, we decided to evaluate how toric, monthly, contact lens wearers perform when exposed to high digital device use. Come learn more in our article that was just published!

Point-Counter Point: Treating Corneal Haze with 0.8 mg/mL Topical Losartan

Innovative care often starts with a hypothesis and animal research. With that, there have been numerous basic science studies recently published demonstrating that topical losartan is able to reduce long-term corneal stromal haze. These studies have since paved the way for human trials.

Check out our Point-Counter Point article in Clinical Insights in Eyecare describing how to use topical losartan in clinical care.

Real-Time Changes in the Comfort of a Toric, Monthly, Soft Contact Lens Over a Long Day of Wear

It’s well known that toric contact lens wearers struggle more with discomfort than spherical contact lens wears, yet there was limited information on real-time comfort in this group, so we decided to take a look.

We overall found that while contact lens comfort does decrease in toric contact lens wearers across the day, comfort was still typically good in normal contact lens wearers and that comfort at any given time of day throughout a wear month is stable in a modern monthly contact lens.
