Are we providing the best contact lens care for our medical patients? A number of contact lens wearers suffer from various conditions that may hinder their ability to wear contacts, including dry eye, ocular allergies and even glaucoma. But with these so ubiquitous in eye care practices, it is often difficult to separate such patients from our “healthy” contact lens wearers.
When we do, we tend to sideline their contact lens-wearing goals, thinking that’s an acceptable sacrifice for the greater good of restoring ocular health. Sometimes, perhaps. But not universally.
