• A history of papillary conjunctivitis that has interfered with contact lens wear.

• Slit lamp findings that would contraindicate contact lens wear, including but not limited to:

  • Pathological dry eye or associated dry eye symptoms with decreased tear levels and punctuate staining > Grade 2
  • Pterygium
  • Corneal scars within the visual axis
  • Neovascularization or ghost vessels > 1.0 mm in from the limbus
  • Giant papillary conjunctivitis (GPC) of > Grade 2
  • Anterior uveitis or iritis
