써클콘택트렌즈가 눈물막 안정성에 미치는 영향 = The Effect of Circle Contact Lens on the Stability of Tear Film

국문 초록 (Abstract)

목적: 본 연구에서는 써클콘택트렌즈의 착색이 눈물막 안정성에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 방법: 눈물량이 정상인 20대 54안을 대상으로 콘택트렌즈 착용 전후의 비침입성 눈물막파괴시간 및 눈물막 깨짐이 시작되는 부위를 측정하였으며, 콘택트렌즈 전후면의 표면 거칠기를 주사전자현미경으로 관찰하였다. 콘택트렌즈는 hilafilcon B 재질의 투명 및 써클콘택트렌즈, polymacon 재질 및 HEMA·NVP 공중합 재질의 써클콘택트렌즈를 대상으로 하였다. 결과: 콘택트렌즈 착용 시 나안에 비해 눈물막파괴시간이 통계적으로 유의하게 감소하였으며 써클콘택트렌즈간에 눈물막파괴시간이 통계적으로 유의한 차이를 보이는 경우도 있었다. 일반적으로 콘택트렌즈의 상방부 보다는하방부에서, 코방향 보다는 귀방향에서 좀 더 높은 빈도로 눈물막이 깨지기 시작하였으나 렌즈의 종류에 따라 다소차이가 있었다. Hilafilcon B 투명렌즈에 비해 동일 재질 써클콘택트렌즈 주변부(착색부분)에서의 눈물막 깨짐이 더많았다. 결론: 써클콘택트렌즈의 착용으로 인해 눈물막 안정성이 영향을 받음을 알 수 있었으며, 본 연구결과는 써클콘택트렌즈 착용 시 착색으로 인하여 나타날 수 있는 문제점 해결의 기초자료로 사용될 수 있을 것으로 보인다.

Purpose: The effect of pigmentation in circle contact lens on lens wearers' tear film stability was investigated in this study. Methods: Non-invasive tear film break-up times of 54 normal eyes before and after lens wearing in twenties and the portion of first tear breakup were measured. The frontal and back surface roughness of circle contact lens was further observed with a scanning electron microscope. The clear lens which was made of hilafilcon B and circle contact lenses which were made of hilafilcon B, polymacon and copolymer of HEMA· NVP were tested. Results: Non-invasive tear film breakup time was significantly reduced compared with it before lens wearing. In some case, statistically significant difference in tear film breakup time was also observed between circle contact lenses. The tear file break-up was usually early started in lower than upper portion, and in temporal than nasal portion although there was variation in the lens material. The tear film break-up of circle contact lenses made of hilafilcon B was more commonly observed in peripheral portion(pigmented area) compared with clear contact lens made of same material. Conclusions: The present study revealed that the stability of tear film was affected by wearing circle contact lens and the result seems to be used as the basis for the problem solving that can occur due to the pigmentation when wearing circle contact lens.
