We evaluated the performance of the SoftPerm combined rigid gas permeable (RGP) and hydrogel lens for the visual correction of 49 eyes (30 patients) with irregular astigmatism. Follow-up was up to 15 months. An attempt was also made to compare the SoftPerm lens to its predecessor, the Saturn II lens. The most common etiology for irregular astigmatism was keratoconus. Others etiologies were penetrating keratoplasty and refractive surgery. Visual acuity improved significantly. Only two eyes were best corrected to 20/20 before fitting whereas, 13 eyes saw 20/20 after fitting. The rate of lens replacement was 0.22 lenses per eye per month. A variety of complications occurred, including corneal staining, abrasions, and edema. Complications also reflected the relative difficulty of handling of the lens, yet no vision threatening complications occurred. Overall, the SoftPerm lens is a vast improvement over the Saturn II and is a reasonable means of correction of irregular astigmatism.
