  17. The Year Growth Rate of Cornea Ulcer Complication

  18. Patients numbers & Visiting times for Cornea Ulcer in Taiwan (2001~ 2005years)

  19. Percentage of Cornea Ulcer Complication of Contact Lens in Taiwan, 2004 year. • 1.96% for patients with cornea ulcer per year ( 39,199¯/2,000,000+ users, users no.estimated from C.L.company) • Very high cornea ulcer complication rate • 3.68% growth for OPD visiting with cornea ulcer diagnosis • 1.88 times visiting OPD per one patient with ulcer

  20. What are the risk factors for high cornea ulcer complication rate ? Behavior ? Environment? Product ?

  21. We design a questionnaire • 1.      Name:_______________ • 2.      Birth day:_______________ • 3.      Contact Lens Styles: □Daily disposable □Weekly disposable □Two week disposable □Long term normal styles • 4.      Extended wear: Daily□over one day□over two days□over one week Two week□over two weeks□over three week□over one mouth Long term□over night wearing • 5.      Dysinfection Method: Cleaning every day□yes□no Cleaning solution□normal saline only□using dysinfection solution Cleaning method with rubbing □yes□no • 6.      Wearing Period per Day: □less than 8hrs□8~12hrs□over 12hrs 7. Diagnosis:________________

  22. The questionnaire were done by patients • From Apr.2005 to Dec.2006. • All patients visiting our OPD • Diagnosis with contact lens wearing complication : K ulcer and Infiltrative Keratitis (IK) :47 patients • Diagnosis with cornea ulcer due to contact lens wearing: 30/47 patients (64%) • Diagnosis with IK due to contact lens wearing: 17/47 patients (36%) • M/F:14/33 (1:2.4) • Age: 14~52 years old (below20:13, 20-30:23, 30-40:9, upper40:2 )

  23. Result from questionnaires : • Extended wear : 47% (22/47) mainly in disposable C L : 73% (16/22) mainly in 2-weeks disposable C L : 95% • Cleaning without dysinfection solution : 49% (23/47) mainly in disposable C L : 70% (16/23) • Cleaning without rubbing: 75% (35/47) mainly in long term C L : 57% (20/35)

  24. Discussion • MoistureLoe dysinfection solution induce Fungus infection due to without rubbing. • Without rubbing is a key point

  25. Conclusion: • The high complication rate nearly 2% and the rapid 3 years complex growth rate 17.5% of cornea ulcer in contact lens users in Taiwan (2001~2004) due to wrong contact lens wearing behaviors : (1) Extended wear (2) Cleaning without dysinfection solution (3) Esp. Cleaning without rubbing
