dc.description | The research project examined the effect of contact lenses on the visual quality of young patients attending the Foursquare Gospel Church "La Alborada" in Guayaquil, between November 2023 and April 2024. Specific objectives were set to define the subjective perception of visual quality, analyze the comfort and satisfaction with the use of contact lenses, and identify possible side effects. The methodology used was deductive and analytical, with a quantitative approach. The findings revealed that more than 50% of the young people presented a visual acuity of 20/20 with the correction provided by contact lenses. However, some participants showed low tear production, which could rule out their suitability for contact lens wear. In addition, significant improvements in participants' visual acuity were observed, although some young people with astigmatism experienced difficulties in lens fitting. The research contributes to the understanding of how contact lenses can improve visual quality, highlighting their beneficial effect on visual acuity and visual field in young patients. These findings underscore the importance of proper contact lens wear and provide information relevant to ophthalmic practice and the visual well-being of the community studied. | es_ES |

dc.description.abstract | El proyecto de investigación examinó el efecto de los lentes de contacto en la calidad visual de pacientes jóvenes que asisten a la Iglesia del Evangelio Cuadrangular "La Alborada" en Guayaquil, entre noviembre de 2023 y abril de 2024. Se plantearon objetivos específicos para definir la percepción subjetiva de la calidad visual, analizar la comodidad y satisfacción del uso de lentes de contacto, e identificar posibles efectos secundarios. La metodología utilizada fue deductiva y analítica, con un enfoque cuantitativo. Los hallazgos revelaron que más del 50% de los jóvenes presentaron una agudeza visual de 20/20 con la corrección proporcionada por los lentes de contacto. Sin embargo, algunos participantes mostraron baja producción de lágrimas, lo que podría descartar su idoneidad para el uso de lentes de contacto. Además, se observaron mejoras significativas en la agudeza visual de los participantes, aunque algunos jóvenes con astigmatismo experimentaron dificultades en la adaptación de los lentes. La investigación contribuye al entendimiento de cómo los lentes de contacto pueden mejorar la calidad visual, destacando su efecto beneficioso en la agudeza visual y el campo visual de los pacientes jóvenes. Estos hallazgos subrayan la importancia del uso adecuado de los lentes de contacto y proporcionan información relevante para la práctica oftalmológica y el bienestar visual de la comunidad estudiada. | es_ES |
