(A–E). Slit lamp photomicrographs (A–D). Lewis rat wearing high Dk lotrafilcon B lens before (A) and after (C) bacterial challenge or low Dk nelfilcon A lens before (B) and after (D) bacterial challenge. Magnification = A,B= 3X; C,D=4X. (E) Clinical scoring of disease at 48 hours after bacterial challenge showed that 3 of 10 low Dk wearing rat corneas vs. none of 10 of the high Dk wearing rat corneas infected. These data, showing a trend toward infection with low DK lens wear, were not significant (p=0.09).
