This study was conducted to measure the central corneal thickness(CTT) changes associated with kinds of wearing contact lens. The CCT was measured using ultrasonic pachymeter in three hundred four subjects in their 20s and 30s. Although the CCT of Group 1 who had never worn any kinds of contact lens had no differences between left and right eye as well as between genders, the CCT tended to become thinner depending on the increment in refractive error. In Group 2 wearing only soft contact lens, the CCT was thinner depending on wearing period, and subjects wearing for more than 10 years had significantly thin CCT comparing with subjects wearing for less than 4 years. There was no significant difference in the CCT between Group 3 wearing only RGP lens and Group 2 for less than 4 years. Furthermore, when comparing the CCT between the Group 2 and Group 4 changing to RGP lens after wearing soft contact lens, there was no statistically significant change in the CCT. However, the CCT was significantly thinner in Group 5 changing to soft contact lens after wearing PMMA(polymethyl methacrylate) hard lens compared with Group 2.
