Significance: Scleral lens wear can alter aqueous fluid and anterior chamber angle dynamics, leading to changes in intraocular pressure (IOP). However, there is limited information supporting this relationship between scleral lens wear, anterior chamber angle (ACA), and IOP changes in an black African population.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare scleral IOP and ACA before, during, and after 4 hours of scleral lens wear in healthy neophyte scleral lens wearers from an black African population.
The aim of this study was to explore knowledge, practice of risk and guidelines of the novel corona virus disease (COVID-19) infection among the eye care practitioners and the potential associated factors. A cross-sectional self-administered online survey was distributed via emails and social media networks between 2nd and 18th May 2020 corresponding to the week of the lockdown in Nigeria to eye care practitioners (ECPs). Data for 823 respondents were analyzed.
