Summary

The goal of this study is to investigate the overall theory that the use of chemically preserved solutions associated with contact lenses promotes an increase in bacterial infection.

Detailed description

The purpose of this study is to investigate the theory of bacterial binding to surface eye cells through the use of chemically preserved solutions.
