Abstract:
Latar belakang: Lensa kontak merupakan alternatif pengganti kacamata untuk mengkoreksi gangguan refraksi mata. Di zaman modern, lensa kontak menjadi tren tersendiri, dan penggunanya terus meningkat. Penting untuk memahami faktor-faktor yang berhubungan dengan penggunaan lensa kontak, karena selain memiliki berbagai macam kelebihan, lensa kontak juga memiliki dampak negatif bagi penggunanya. Tujuan: penelitian ini untuk menganalisis faktor-faktor yang berhubungan dengan praktik penggunaan lensa kontak dalam pencegahan komplikasi gangguan kesehatan mata pada mahasiswa Universitas Diponegoro.Metode: Metode yang digunakan yaitu kuantitatif dengan pendekatan cross sectional. Populasi pada penelitian ini yaitu mahasiswa Universitas Diponegoro dan sampel sebanyak 60 orang responden sebagai kelompok pengguna lensa kontak dan 60 orang responden sebagai kelompok bukan pengguna lensa kontak dengan teknik sampling consecutive sampling. Analisis data dilakukan secara univariat dan bivariat dengan uji statistik chi square (taraf kemaknaan 0,05).Hasil: Faktor yang berhubungan dengan praktik penggunaan lensa kontak pada mahasiswa Universitas Diponegoro, yaitu jenis kelamin (p=0,0001), lensa kontak untuk koreksi kelainan refraksi (p= 0,0001), lensa kontak untuk kosmetik (p= 0,0001), orang yang mempengaruhi untuk menggunakan lensa kontak (p= 0,008), penggunaan lensa kontak karena tren (p= 0,0001), tempat pembelian lensa kontak (p= 0,0001), penggunaan lensa kontak karena penjualannya bebas (p= 0,0001), persepsi manfaat lensa kontaksebagai pengganti kacamata (p= 0,003), persepsi manfaat lensa kontak dapat meningkatkan citra diri (p= 0,042).Simpulan: Jenis kelamin, lensa kontak untuk koreksi gangguan refraksi, lensa kontak untuk kosmetik, orang yang mempengaruhi untuk menggunakan lensa kontak, penggunaan lensa kontak karena tren, tempat pembelian lensa kontak, penggunaan lensa kontak karena penjualannya bebas, persepsi manfaat lensa kontaksebagai pengganti kacamata, persepsi manfaat lensa kontak dapat meningkatkan citra diri. Kata kunci: Lensa kontak, Praktik, Universitas Diponegoro Title: Factors Related to the Practice of Using Contact Lenses in the Prevention of Complications of Eye Health Disorders in Diponegoro University Students Background: Contact lenses are an alternative besides glasses to correct eye refraction disorders. In modern era, contact lenses are becoming a trend, and the users are increase continuously. It is important to understand the factors associated with the use of contact lenses, because in addition to having various kinds of advantages, contact lenses also have a negative impact on users. Objective: this study is to analyze the factors associated with the practice of contact lens use in prevention of eye health disorders complications at Diponegoro University students. Method: The study design is quantitative with cross sectional approach. The population in this study were Diponegoro University students and a sample of 60 respondents as a contact lens’s user group and 60 respondents as a not contact lens’s user group with consecutive sampling technique. Data analysis was done by univariate and bivariate with chi square test (significance level of 0.05). Results: Factors related to the practice of contact lens use in Diponegoro University students, gender (p = 0,0001), contact lenses for correction of refraction disorders (p = 0,0001), contact lenses for cosmetics (p = 0,0001 ), people who influence to use contact lenses (p= 0,008), contact lens use due to trends (p = 0,0001), where to buy contact lenses (p = 0,0001), contact lens use because free sales (p = 0,0001), the benefits perception of contact lenses as a substitute for glasses (p = 0.003), the benefits perception of contact lenses can improve self-image (p = 0.042).Conclusion: Gender, contact lenses for correction of refraction disorders, contact lenses for cosmetics, people who influence to use contact lenses, use of contact lenses due to trends, places to buy contact lenses, use of contact lenses because of free sales, benefits perception of contact lenses as a substitute for glasses, the benefits perception of contact lenses can improve self-image.

Abstract:
World is threatened by different variants of Coronavirus to an extent that life has been jeopardized in all services including eye care facility. Contact lenses which are one of the preferred modes of vision correction are not an exception to COVID-19 infection. Recently there is confusion among practitioners and patients regarding the safety of contact lens use during COVID-19. This review article summarizes the current recommendations and findings regarding contact lens use during COVID-19. Though eye health professionals and contact lens users are at risk to contract Coronavirus, with proper care, maintenance and disinfection techniques, it would be safe to continue wearing contact lenses. There is currently no strong evidence to suggest that contact lenses are not safe to wear during COVID 19 times. Eye care practitioners responsible for contact lens application must wear special surgical masks, protective glasses or visors and disposable waterproof gloves. Regarding soft contact lenses, preferably daily disposable lenses should be used from the sterile packages. Similarly for rigid gas permeable lenses, lenses made up of fluoropolymer contained in sealed packages must be motivated for the individuals. Since the infected hands can bring the virus to the eyes, contact lens users should avoid touching the nose, mouth and eye unnecessarily. Contact lens after each use must be disinfected with hydrogen peroxide solutions with a special catalyst container. In the case of eye redness and Flu like symptoms, contact lens trial and wearing practices should be suspended or postpone till the condition becomes normal. To minimize the contact time between the patient and examiner soft copy of the instruction sheet, teleconsultation should be motivated. Though the eye is an unlikely site for Coronavirus infection, eye doctors should warn the contact lens wearers to follow scrupulous contact lens hygiene rules.

Abstract:
Purpose. The primary focus of this article is to explore the critical aspects of verifying and inspecting RGP contact lens parameters in clinical practice. The verification process is essential to ensure that patients receive lenses with accurate and optimal parameters, thus improving their visual experi- ence and comfort. The article delves into the methods and instruments available to eye care practitioners for verifying key parameters, including back surface radii, total lens diam- eter, lens power, lens thickness, blends, and surface quality. Material and Methods. The discussion centers on the tech- niques and tools employed in the verification and inspection of RGP contact lens parameters. It emphasizes the signifi- cance of maintaining a clean and controlled environment for these assessments. Calibration and error minimization strate- gies are highlighted to enhance measurement accuracy. The article provides insights into device-specific measurements and the importance of averaging measurements to mitigate deviations. Results. The article outlines various procedures for verifying the essential parameters of RGP contact lenses. It covers methods for checking back surface radii, including the use of radiuscopes, keratometers, and corneal topographers. Verifi- cation of lens diameter is detailed with V-shaped measuring gauges, measuring magnifiers, and projection magnifiers. Lens power verification is explored through lensmeters and specialized lensmeter calibration techniques. Finally, the measurement of lens thickness, the inspection of lens edges, and the evaluation of surface quality and blends between different lens zones are addressed. Conclusion. This article underscores the significance of thorough verification and inspection of RGP contact lens parameters in clinical practice. These essential steps ensure that patients receive lenses that meet their specific needs, contributing to improved visual acuity, comfort, and overall ocular health. Eye care practitioners should check their pa- tients’ RGP contact lenses according to the ordered param- eters. By following the described methods and employing appropriate instruments, the fitting and prescribing of rigid gas-permeable contact lenses can be enhanced.

Abstract:
Soft contact lenses are made of soft and flexible materials that are comfortable to wear and adapt quickly. According to the material, soft contact lenses can be divided into hydrogel contact lenses and silicone hydrogel contact lenses. Silicone hydrogel contact lenses have enhanced oxygen permeability compared to conventional hydrogel contact lenses, so side effects from long-term wear can be reduced. Representative factors that explain the characteristics of soft contact lenses are oxygen permeability, water content, and modulus. To increase the oxygen permeability of silicone hydrogel contact lenses, it is necessary to increase the silicone content, and the increase in the silicone content is accompanied by a decrease in the water content. As the water content decreases, the modulus of the contact lens increases, making the material harder and uncomfortable to wear. In this paper, the oxygen permeability, water content, and modulus of silicone hydrogel contact lenses that can be commercially available in the domestic market are investigated.

Abstract:
In 1971, soft contact lenses were a striking addition to the ophthalmic field that related functionally to the existing hard contact lenses by correctingrefractive error, but their properties and description were different so as to confound ophthalmic professionals in their introduction. Their inventor Otto Wichterle, a Czechoslovakian chemist and anticommunist dissident, developed the soft lens in the 1950-60s with little knowledge of the hard lens, but its potential was broad enough to break through the communist barriers and to spark international consumer interest and development.Challenges in manufacturing and developing soft contact lenses created a complex discipline around the cornea and lid physiology, and optics. This expanded greatly the scientific knowledge of the eye and adnexa to allow a soft, hydrophilic lens to remain symbiotic with the eye. Challenges were met over the past 50 years with a change in nomenclature and in automated manufacturing closer to hard lenses, optical advancements, new materials and surface treatments, and lens disinfection methods. The science developing from the diminutive soft lens led to the incorporation of related biomedical and polymer science within the broader ophthalmic field that inordinately influenced optical advancements, instrumentation,and ocular pathology.
