摘要

A 38-year-old woman, previous daily disposable soft contact lens wearer, reported an episode of microbial keratitis positive for Pseudo-monas aeruginosa 11 months before contacting the investigators. After acute treatment, she was left with a degree of opacity in the pupillary area, corneal scar, and an irregular corneal profile, with a best spectacle visual acuity of +0.48 logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution. A scleral lens was able to mask those corneal sequelae and, even considering the corneal opacity, the visual acuity recovered to +0.06 logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution. The patient was fitted with a 16.4-mm scleral lens and attended several appointments over a 12-month follow-up period. After 12 months of scleral lens wear, the improvement of both high-contrast and low-contrast visual acuities remained stable and a clearing of the corneal opacity was observed. The comfort was assessed with the Ocular Surface Disease Index questionnaire, which depicted a comfort enhancement from 75.0 to 47.9 over the short term. The Quality of Vision questionnaire was also administrated and showed an improvement on frequency, severity, and bothersome of the vision-related symptoms over time. Scleral lens may be a good option to improve vision, comfort, and restore the ocular surface function in patients with corneal scars and opacities secondary to microbial keratitis.
