ABSTRACT

AIM: To discuss the effect of wearing customized curvature soft corneal contact lens to dry eye degree of flight attendants. METHODS:Eighty cases (160 eyes) of flight attendants from China Southern were divided into two groupscontrol group 40 cases ( 80 eyes ) wearing ready-made Bausch soft corneal contact lens ( curvature 8. 4 ); the experiment group 40 cases ( 80 eyes ) , wearing Bausch soft corneal contact lens with customized curvature. Tear break-up time ( BUT ) , Schirmer Ⅰ test ( SⅠt ) and fluorescein ( FL ) staining were as dry eye evaluation index. The results was statistically analyzed. RESULTS: BUT, SⅠt average shortening value of the experimental group were less than that of the control group, there was statistical significance (PCONCLUSION: Wearing customized curvature soft corneal contact lens can prevent the flight dry eye more effectively than fixed curvature product.
