Objectives:

To describe visual outcomes with various contact lens modalities in patients with a history of ocular trauma who underwent surgical open globe repair.

Methods:

Records of all patients with a history of open globe injury and repair at a tertiary care hospital between January 1, 2010, and December 31, 2016, were reviewed. Demographics, type of injury, and visual acuity were assessed before and after contact lens evaluation.

Results:

Of 214 patients who underwent open globe repair, 29 (13.6%) were evaluated with a contact lens. Visual acuity improved in 97%(28 of 29) of patients from 1.47±0.75 to 0.67±0.71 logarithm of the minimal angle of resolution (logMAR) with manifest refraction to 0.28±0.45 logMAR with contact lenses (n= 29; P< 0.0001). Corneal opacity was the most common clinical indication (20 of 29) for fitting followed by aphakia (13 of 29). A range of contact lens modalities, including corneal …
