초록

목적: 본 연구에서는 일회용 써클콘택트렌즈(이하 써클렌즈)의 초과 착용으로 유발될 수 있는 자각적 및 타각적 변화와 광투과율의 변화를 알아보고자 하였다. 방법: 3가지 다른 재질(hilafilcon B, nelfilcon A, etafilcon A)의 일회용 써클렌즈를 안질환이 없으며 눈물량이 정상인 20대 20안에게 각각 착용시키고 자각적 불편감, 착용자의 순목횟수, 비침습성 눈물막 파괴시간(NIBUT), 각막에서의 렌즈 중심안정위치 및 렌즈 가시광선 투과율를 렌즈 착용직후와 착용자가 불편감을 호소하여 더 이상 렌즈를 착용하지 못하였을 때에 각각 측정한 후 비교하였다. 결과: 일회용 써클렌즈의 평균 착용권장시간인 8시간을 초과하여 15시간 이상 착용하였을 때부터 착용감 저하를 호소하였으며, 30시간 이상 착용 시에는 대부분의 피검자가 렌즈 착용을 중단하였다. 렌즈 착용중단시점에서 대표적인 자각적인 불편감은 뻑뻑함, 건조감 및 피곤함이었다. 일회용 써클렌즈의 초과착용 시 순목횟수는 착용직후에 비해 증가하는 경향을, NIBUT값은 감소하는 경향을 보였다. 렌즈 착용중단시점에서 렌즈의 중심안정위치는 착용직후에 비해 동공 중심으로부터 벗어나는 경향을 보였다. 이러한 결과는 모든 렌즈에서 나타나는 결과이었으나 렌즈 재질의 종류나 개인에 따라서 자각적 및 타각적인 변화 정도의 차이가 존재하였으며 렌즈의 가시광선 투과도의 변화는 크게 나타났다. 결론: 이상의 결과에서 일회용 써클렌즈의 초과착용 시 감소된 NIBUT값은 건조감과 뻑뻑함을, 가시광선 투과도의 감소는 순목횟수 증가를 유발하는 것으로 생각되었으며 이는 중심안정위치의 이탈과 자각적 불편감의 증가를 야기시키는 것으로 생각되었다. 그러나 개인 및 렌즈 재질의 종류에 따라서 그 정도의 차이가 크며, 이로 인하여 개인에 따라서는 예상치 못한 문제가 발생될 수 있으므로 일일 권장착용시간 준수의 필요성 및 문제점의 교육이 필수적이라 하겠다.

Purpose: This study was assessed to investigate the change of subjective and/or objective symptoms and the light transmissibility of lens caused by over-usage of daily disposable circle contact lenses (circle lens). Methods: Three daily disposable circle lenses made of etafilcon A, hilafilcon B, and nelfilcon A were applied on 20 normal eyes free from any eye diseases by when subjects complained any kind of discomfort. On the first and the last days of lens wearing, subjective discomfort, blinking rate, non-invasive break-up time, lens centration on corneal surface and visible light transmissibility of lens were recorded at every case and compared. Results: The circle lens wearers complained discomfort when they wore the circle lens more than 15 hours, in excess of 8 hours being the recommended wearing time and the most circle lens wearers quit the lens wearing when they wore more than 30 hours. On the last day of lens wearing, the representative subjective discomforts were stiffness, dryness and tiredness. When the subjects wore circle lens more than the recommended time, a tendency of increased blinking rate and decreased NIBUT was observed when it compared with the values right after lens wearing. On the last day of lens wearing, the lens centration was shown to be decentrated from the pupil center compared with the centration right after the wearing. These changes in lens centration and blinking rate were consistently shown in all cases of lens wearing however, the difference in the degree of subjective and/or objective change was present depending on lens materials and subjects. The visible light transmissibility of circle lens has largely been changed. Conclusions: From these results, it was thought that the decreased NIBUT induced dryness and stiffness and decreased visible light transmissibility caused more blinking when daily disposable circle lens was exceedingly used, which provoked lens decentration and subjective discomfort. However, the difference of subjective and/or objective change was largely varied in accordance with the lens material types and individuality and thus it may occur some unexpected problems by the individual base. Therefore, the education about the necessity to comply with the recommended wearing time and the problem will be essential.
