title: [Use of soft contact lenses after scleroplasty surgery for myopia].
abstract: Authors refer their favourable experiences with the application of soft contact lenses used after the performed scleroplastic operation described by Pivovarov. Soft contact lenses were applied in 54 patients where myopia was operated. In 90% of patients the daily use of contact lenses was more than 8 hours. These patients tolerated the contact lenses even better than the patients with myopia but without operation. Compared with the correction with spectacles, the visual acuity was significantly increased in the group using the contact lenses. The visual acuity 6/6-6/9 was achieved in the group of contact lenses wearers in 63% and in the group of patients using spectacles was present only in 29%. In all patients wearing the contact lenses their specific working activity was distinctly enhanced. The modest scarring of the conjunctive as well as presence of implants does not interfere with the contact lens wear, when the myopic operation was carefully performed.
