Purpose: The purpose of this study was to assess the medical history of adenoviral keratoconjunctivitis (AK) and subepithelial infiltrates (SEIs) among French ophthalmologists and orthoptists and the frequency of unreported occupational diseases. We also described short-term and long-term consequences of AK and evaluated associated factors.
Methods: The REDCap questionnaire was diffused online several times over 7 consecutive months, from October 2019 to May 2020, through mailing lists (French Society of Ophthalmology, residents, and hospital departments), social networks, and by word of mouth.
Purpose: To evaluate the outcome of SPOT scleral lenses in the management of irregular astigmatism in patients with corneal ectasia and penetrating keratoplasty. Second, we analyzed patients' characteristics and tolerance, comfort, and geometries of fitted lenses.
Method: Over a 5-year period, we included patients experiencing irregular astigmatism fitted with SPOT scleral contact lenses, from the University Hospital of Clermont-Ferrand, France.
