Our experience with extended wear contact lenses.
The follow up of the patients was short and there may be failures later because of frequent lens loss or deposits on the lenses. In this study the failures which occurred did so within the first few weeks. It is probable that we can advise our patients that Extended Wear Contact Lenses are worn successfully by 70% of the patients with gratifying results.
