Abstract

Patterns of prescribing daily disposable contact lenses in the UK were determined by mining through data gathered from annual contact lens fitting surveys conducted over the past 12 years. Spherical, toric and multifocal design daily disposable lenses represent a substantial proportion of all contact lenses prescribed, reflecting the significant ocular health and lifestyle advantages offered by this lens category.
