“…29 Conversely, some authors have advocated fitting hybrid contact lenses (HCL) and STCL in patients with KC and irregular astigmatism to reduce HOA and improve their quality of life, and to improve their VA, when these patients had not been successfully adapted to rigid CL. [30][31][32] In this line, Saraç et al highlighted that 54.7% of patients with mild or grade 1 KC chose STCL as the first option. 16 In addition, Harbiyeli et al 32 found positive outcomes regarding safety and efficacy of new-generation HCL among patients with irregular astigmatism because of KC, after PK, corneal trauma, or radial keratotomy.…”

Purpose To evaluate the efficacy of YOUSOFT soft contact lenses in correcting irregular astigmatism and prescription results of patients with keratoconus. Patients and Methods The retrospective observational study included 55 eyes (mean age, 32.2 ± 10.6 years; 36 men and 6 women) of 42 patients with keratoconus who tried YOUSOFT for rigid gas permeable (RGP) lens intolerance. Average keratometry, corneal astigmatism, and maximum keratometry were 49.4 ± 5.2 diopters (D), 3.7 ± 2.1 D, and 57.3 ± 8.2 D, respectively. Patients were divided into YOUSOFT prescription and non-prescription cases, wherein the prescription rates were calculated. YOUSOFT visual acuity was compared with spectacle-corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) and RGP lens-CDVA. Results YOUSOFT was prescribed to 28 out of 42 patients (prescription rate 67%). In the YOUSOFT prescription cases, YOUSOFT-CDVA (logMAR −0.04; 95% confidence interval [CI]: −0.08 to 0.00) was significantly better than spectacle-CDVA (logMAR 0.23; 95% CI: 0.08 to 0.38; P < 0.0001), whereas YOUSOFT-CDVA (logMAR −0.03; 95% CI: −0.08 to 0.03) did not significantly differ from the RGP lens-CDVA (logMAR −0.02; 95% CI: −0.08 to 0.04; P = 0.856). Conclusion YOUSOFT was effective in correcting irregular corneal astigmatism, suggesting that it is highly effective in patients with RGP lens intolerance.
