Description

Adithep Daradas and co-authors compare glasses and contact lenses in young adults with uneven short-sightedness, in this 2026 Europe PMC paper. In myopic anisometropia, the two eyes differ by at least one diopter. The team studied seventy-two participants, half with even and half with uneven myopia, under both forms of correction.

With glasses, the two groups showed no clear difference in binocular efficiency. Contact lenses changed focusing and vergence patterns: the uneven group showed much larger accommodative lag and higher negative relative accommodation. Contact lenses also strained divergence reserves. Yet stereo vision was better with contacts than glasses, a possible advantage for larger degrees of unevenness that needs more testing.
