Ahear DG et al. - Attachment to and penetration of unworn hydrogel soft contact lenses by Fusarium varied with the strain and lens type rather than with the clinical, environmental, or geographic source of the isolates. Without organic enrichment of the lenses, penetration was more rapid and extensive by representatives of FSSC 1. Penetration was slow and less extensive under these conditions with FOSC and FSSC 2-c and 3. Organic enrichment of the lenses typically favored development of PP by the FOSC. Attachment and penetration of lenses occurred sooner and to a greater extent with surface-treated silicone hydrogel lenses than with the hydroxyethylmethacrylate lens.
