摘要

This study was designed to establish risk factors for the development of Acanthamoeba keratitis (AK) for daily disposable (DD) contact lens (CL) users compared with daily wear (DW) reusable lens users and for risks unique to DD users. This is important because, in many major economies, CL use is the principal cause of microbial keratitis, of which AK accounts for approximately 50% of cases with sight loss. Determining these AK risks informs practitioner advice and consumer behavior.Case-control study.Cases and controls were recruited from an Accident and Emergency Department serving South-East England. Cases were new CL users with AK recruited retrospectively from January 2011 to February 2013 and prospectively thereafter until August 2014. Controls were recruited prospectively from February 2014 to June 2015.Analysis of a self-administered questionnaire.Independent risk factors and population attributable risk percentage (PAR%) for AK.A total of 83 AK cases and 122 controls were recruited; DD use was reported by 20 (24%) cases and 66 (54%) controls. In multivariable analyses adjusted for potential confounders, the odds of AK was higher for DW reusable soft lenses (odds ratio [OR], 3.84; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.75-8.43) and rigid lenses (OR, 4.56; 95% CI, 1.03-20.19) than for DD lenses. Within the DD-using subset, AK was associated with the following modifiable risk factors: less frequent professional follow-up visits (OR, 10.12; 95% CI, 5.01-20.46); showering in lenses (OR, 3.29, 95% CI, 1.17-9.23); lens reuse (OR, 5.41; 95% CI, 1.55-18.89); and overnight wear (OR, 3.93; 95% CI, 1.15-13.46). The PAR% estimated that 30% to 62% of cases could be prevented by switching from reusable soft lens to DD lens use.Acanthamoeba keratitis risks are increased > threefold in DW reusable lens users versus DD lens use. Acanthamoeba keratitis risks for DD lens users can be minimized by adherence to safe use guidelines (no reuse, overnight wear, or contamination by water). Safe CL use can be improved by increasing the prominence of risk avoidance information from manufacturers and regulators. Because AK accounts for half of severe keratitis in CL users, these measures can be expected to have public health benefits.
