ABSTRACT
The purpose of this study was to investigate the status of contact lens use in the pool for water polo players. A total of 627 male subjects were studied junior high school players (n=190), high school players (n=188), college players (n=121) and water polo club players (n=128).Results were summarized as follows 1) The percentage of players using vision correction devices in daily life was 43.38%, and use of contact lenses during water polo play was 30.14% for all subjects. 2) Junior high school players using contact lenses during water polo play showed a significantly lower rate compared with other players (<i>X</i><sup>2</sup>=34.38, p<.01). 3) There were a lot of users of disposable type contact lenses during water polo play. 4) Players using contact lenses during water polo play had significantly higher corneal and conjunctival damage than subjects using vision correction devices in daily life and subjects without vision correction devices (<i>X</i><sup>2</sup>=13.64, p<.01).We concluded that it was a problem for junior high school players with low vision acuity during water polo play.
