Abstract
|
|
|
It is important to understand the acute and chronic complications of prolonged contact lens use; treatment of acute problems is more effective than treatment of chronic reactions because it is difficult to restore corneal tissue. Contact lens-induced acute red eye (CLARE) is an acute inflammatory reaction of the cornea and conjunctiva triggered by contact lenses. CLARE recurrence is common; differential diagnosis from serious eye diseases that can compromise visual acuity is important. CLARE must be appropriately treated and patients must be educated in terms of safe contact lens wearing and storage.
