    • Release of Moxifloxacin from Contact Lenses Using an In Vitro Eye Model: Impact of Artificial Tear Fluid Composition and Mechanical Rubbing 

      Phan, Chau-Minh; Bajgrowicz-Cieslak, Magdalena; Subbaraman, Lakshman N.; Jones, Lyndon W. (Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology, 2016-08-11)
      Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the release of moxifloxacin from a variety of daily disposable (DD) contact lenses (CLs) under various conditions using a novel in vitro eye model. Methods: Four ...
    • Self versus examiner administration of the Ocular Surface Disease Index© 

      Ngo, William; Srinivasan, Sruthi; Keech, Adam; Keir, Nancy; Jones, Lyndon W. (Elsevier, 2017-01)
      Purpose: To compare the difference in Ocular Surface Disease Index© (OSDI) scores when participants were given the OSDI to complete on their own (self-guided, SG), versus under the guidance of the examiner (examiner-guided, ...
    • Tear evaporation rates: What does the literature tell us? 

      Wong, Stephanie; Murphy, Paul J.; Jones, Lyndon W. (Elsevier, 2017-12-24)
      Purpose A previous literature review reported tear evaporation rates (TERs) from studies conducted on rabbits and humans between 1941 and 2003. Closer examination of the presented data revealed inaccuracies in the reporting ...
    • Tear exchange and contact lenses: A review 

      Muntz, Alex; Subbaraman, Lakshman N.; Sorbara, Luigina; Jones, Lyndon W. (Elsevier, 2015-01)
      Tear exchange beneath a contact lens facilitates ongoing fluid replenishment between the ocular surface and the lens. This exchange is considerably lower during the wear of soft lenses compared with rigid lenses. As a ...

      This article presents an Executive Summary of the conclusions and recommendations of the 10-chapter TFOS DEWS II report. The entire TFOS DEWS II report was published in the July 2017 issue of The Ocular Surface. A downloadable ...
    • The TFOS International Workshop on Contact Lens Discomfort: Executive Summary 

      Nichols, Jason J.; Willcox, Mark D. P.; Bron, Anthony J.; Belmonte, Carlos; Ciolino, Joseph B.; Craig, Jennifer P.; Dogru, Murat; Foulks, Gary N.; Jones, Lyndon W.; Nelson, J. Daniel; Nichols, Kelly K.; Purslow, Christine; Schaumberg, Debra A.; Stapleton, Fiona; Sullivan, David A. (Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology, 2013-10-18)
      Contact lens discomfort (CLD) is a frequently experienced problem, with most estimates suggesting that up to half of contact lens wearers experience this problem with some frequency or magnitude. This condition impacts ...
    • The TFOS International Workshop on Contact Lens Discomfort: Introduction 

      Nichols, Jason J.; Jones, Lyndon W.; Nelson, J. Daniel; Stapleton, Fiona; Sullivan, David A.; Willcox, Mark D. P. (Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology, 2013-10-18)
      For many years, the contact lens field had focused on safety associated with contact lens wear—and for good reason, given the lack of understanding of the risk factors and etiology of serious complications such as microbial ...
    • The TFOS International Workshop on Contact Lens Discomfort: Report of the Contact Lens Interactions With the Ocular Surface and Adnexa Subcommittee 

      Efron, Nathan; Jones, Lyndon W.; Bron, Anthony J.; Knop, Erich; Arita, Reiko; Barabino, Stefano; McDermott, Alison M.; Villani, Edoardo; Willcox, Mark D. P.; Markoulli, Maria (Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology, 2013-10-18)
      The report of this subcommittee concerns the impact of contact lenses (CLs) on the ocular surface, with a particular emphasis on CL discomfort (CLD). We define the ocular surface, its regional anatomy, and the physiological ...
    • The TFOS International Workshop on Contact Lens Discomfort: Report of the Contact Lens Materials, Design, and Care Subcommittee 

      Jones, Lyndon W.; Brennan, Noel A.; González-Méijome, José; Lally, John; Maldonado-Codina, Carole; Schmidt, Tannin A.; Subbaraman, Lakshman; Young, Graeme; Nichols, Jason J. (Association for Research in Vision and Ophthalmology, 2013-10-18)
      Examining the role of the contact lens material, design, and the care system is fundamental to understanding contact lens discomfort (CLD). However, a systematic review that tries to determine the governing factors is ...
    • Towards point-of-care detection of polymicrobial infections: Rapid colorimetric response using a portable spectrophotometer 

      Verma, Mohit S.; Tsuji, Jackson M.; Hall, Brad; Chen, Paul Z.; Forrest, James; Jones, Lyndon W.; Gu, Frank X. (Elsevier, 2016-09)
      Infectious diseases spread rapidly because current diagnostic methods are slow, expensive, and require technical expertise. Biosensors have recently been used as devices that can be deployed at the point-of-care for rapid ...
