Complications associated with spin-cast soft contact lenses.

The only spin-cast soft contact lens manufactured in the United States is the Bausch & Lomb Soflens. There have been no significant complications reported with this high-quality lens. Essentially, the complications seen with the spin-cast lens have been the same as those seen with any of the lathe-cut hydrophilic lenses. The two most common complications have been poor centering of the lenses and deposits on the lenses.
