Tight lens syndrome associated with a 24-hour disposable collagen lens: a case report

Tight lens syndrome occurred 8 hours after a 24-hour Bio-Cor bandage collagen lens (Bausch & Lomb, Inc.) was placed on the eye of a 19 year old female patient with a history of Stevens-Johnson syndrome and recurrent corneal abrasions. Because collagen bandage contact lenses share some physical and fitting properties with hydrophilic lenses, they should be used with caution in patients at high risk for a tight lens.
