pubmed:abstractText
Contact lens-induced peripheral ulcer (CLPU), a sudden-onset adverse event observed with extended wear of hydrogel lenses, is characterized by a single, small, circular, focal anterior stromal infiltrate in the corneal periphery or midperiphery. The condition is always associated with a significant overlying epithelial loss and resolves in a scar. The aim was to determine, by using histopathologic techniques, the nature and type of the corneal infiltrate of these events.
