| Abstract | Nowadays contact lenses become popular worldwide and are considered medical device for correction of vision errors instead of eye glasses, and for cosmetic purpose. However, patients with corneal disease such as keratoconus or other eye diseases need contact lens to achieve good quality of vision. Many preliminary studies indicated that orthokeratology or soft multifocal contact lens in children may slow myopia progression. In the future decades, contact lens will possibly be provided by various modalities for example: measurement of tear glucose levels instead of blood glucose in diabetes patients and delay the progression of many eye diseases, which are still under investigation. |
