摘要：
Nowadays, contact lenses have shown a larger variety of options in order to meet the needs of different patients. They have become more frequent in the clinical practice and, consequently, the complications related to contact lenses have been more common. This review attempted to describe the main alterations and diseases of the cornea and anterior segment associated with contact lens wearers.
