Objective:
To demonstrate the innovative use of soft prosthetic lenses for managing diplopia in a patient with adult strabismus.
Key Findings:
- The patient experienced immediate relief from diplopia after lens fitting.
- The final lens provided comfort and improved cosmetic appearance.
- Computer-generated prosthetic soft lenses offer reproducibility for replacements.
Interpretation:
Soft prosthetic lenses can effectively manage diplopia while providing cosmetic benefits, particularly in cases of strabismus.
Limitations:
- The Dk value of the lenses is typically low, which may lead to hypoxia-related complications; thus, careful monitoring is necessary to prevent potential complications from lens wear.
Conclusion:
Prosthetic soft lenses are a viable option for patients requiring both cosmetic improvement and occlusion, with careful monitoring for complications emphasized.
