Step 1: Gather Background Information
1.1 Background/Why Problem Exists Many people wear contacts to help emphasize their ability to see. Most simply find this particular type of vision amplifier convenient and are preferred by people who do not like wearing glasses. Because of this, laziness contributes to not sufficiently washing contact lenses to the maximum extent at the end of the day, in that some people do not wash them as thoroughly as they should. This along with the unawareness and importance of washing one’s hands to rid the bacteria before inserting their contact into their eyes with their fingers causes bacteria to progressively build up both on the contact. The viral infection that persistently develops in cases like these is called Fusarium keratitis, which is a fungal type of infection caused by simple yet unconscious things like rubbing the eye, dropping the contact, or wearing it for too long of a period of time.
1.2 Issues It is recommend for contact wearers to soak their lenses in an antibacterial fluid that is normally called lens solution in order for the contacts to be freshly sanitized and ready to wear for the next day. In using some particular contact lens solutions, some may perform their job of cleaning the lenses insufficiently, …show more content…
The issue that was identified initially is that a general eye infection was persistent in all of the individuals who used this particular brand of contact lens solution. A particular infectious agent is a main ingredient of the contact lens solution that causes a fungal bacteria to grow on the contact lens, and eventually spreads to the fluids of the eyes. This then leads to the cornea becoming inflamed in a way that the cornea appears to look clearer and has a cloudy-like appearance, as the sight of the individual affected is dramatically and decreasingly
