Contact lens: soft, toric, multifocal, rigid gas permeable - A State of Sight #33Contact lenses are a popular alternative to glasses, and in this episode of A State of Sight, Isaac Porter, MD discusses four primary types of contacts: soft contacts, toric contacts, multifocal contacts, and rigid gas permeable contact lenses.
Soft contacts are the most commonly used type. Soft lenses are generally replaced every 2 or 4 weeks, but daily disposable lenses are available as well. Toric contact lenses correct for astigmatism. These lenses are usually used in patients with medium to large amounts of astigmatism, since small amounts of astigmatism are very common and only mildly affect vision. Multifocal contact lenses are available for patients over age to give a range of vision from near to far without needing to use reading glasses. Monovision is a great alternative to multifocal lenses and is discussed in detail in episode #34 of A State of Sight. Rigid gas permeable contacts are made of hard plastic and can provide the best clarity of vision in patients with large amounts of astigmatism or corneal problems like keratoconus.
Although some soft contacts are approved for overnight wear up to 30 days, we never recommend this to our patients. Overnight or extended wear can give a 400% greater chance of an eye infection or corneal ulcer, which could cause permanent vision loss.
Have any questions or comments about contact lenses? Please post!

Astigmatism, toric lens, corneal curvature, contact lens - A State of Sight #7Isaac Porter, MD explains that astigmatism is an uneven curvature of the eye that can be corrected with glasses, contact lenses, LASIK, or cataract surgery with toric lens implants. Astigmatism is very common and many patients do not understand what it is. In this episode of A State of Sight, astigmatism is clearly defined in an understandable way.
Contact Lens Care - Instructional VideoProper care of contact lenses. Remember - Contact Lenses are declared by the FDA to be a Medical device so treat them like one!
Contact lens related eye infections can happen suddenly - you may have never have had an eye infection due to your misuse but one day wake up with one of these. They require alot of time to get rid of, can cause pain, don't look pretty, and can cause vision loss. (Some organisms cause infection that can affect vision permently within 48 hours).
