| Abstract | Visual acuity measurements with spectacles, with hard contact lenses and with hard contact lenses plus overrefraction were made on 75 eyes. Similar data was taken on 75 eyes wearing soft contact lenses. In each case, some eyes showed a decrease in visual acuity with contact lenses but the soft lenses wearers showed a greater percentage of eyes with visual acuity decrease. |
