Corneal Wapage

[felipe]

Well, that is my situation:

I have KC in both eyes. I use soft contact lenses and glasses too.
But when I remove the lens of right eye my vision changes. It seems gets better Just after 4~5 hr my vison gets back to the normal. I searched and I found this term corneal warpage.
Is there any problem that flutuation of vision?

Dear Felipe,

What you describe certainly sounds like corneal warpage...though, I would not expect it to occur with soft contact lenses unless, perhaps, they are a particularly thick design as some for KC are.

The main problems of the vision fluctuation that you describe are that it bothers you; that it causes some inconvenience when you would like to read or watch television after removing the lenses.

All the best,

Dr. S

I believe the doc is right. I have tried the Clearkone Synergeyes and it seems to also change my vision after removal. It is a hybrid lens and I have no idea why it is happening unless it is because your lens and my lens are fit too tightly. I know that hard rgp lenses sometimes do also change the vision for a while after removal.
