Patient and Practitioner Compliance With Silicone Hydrogel and Daily Disposable Lens Replacement in the United States
Eye and Contact Lens: Science and Clinical Practice , 07/21/09

Dumbleton K et al. – ECPs recommended RFs more frequently with DD and 1M SH lenses than with 2W SH lenses, consistent with manufacturers' recommendations. Patients were less compliant with RF than ECPs for all lens types investigated. Patients were most compliant with RF when wearing DD lenses and least compliant when wearing 2W SH lenses. Better communication facilitated greater compliance with RF. More than half of those not replacing lenses, when recommended, reported that this was because they forgot which day to replace their lenses.
