Abstract:
Corneal edema and decreased endothelial cell count are complications related to chronic low-grade hypoxia experienced by contact lens wearers, primarily due to prolonged and overnight wear. This case shows the example of a patient who has blurred vision problems in both eyes and who underwent a complete ophthalmologic examination that included photographs, corneal topography and endothelial cell count. Subsequently, the corneal metabolism, the etiopathogenesis and the complications derived from the use of contact lenses are reviewed.
