In this paper, we report the relation between fabric characteristics and animal model cornea modifications associated with extended use of fluoro-siloxanyl styrene rigid gas permeable contact lens. Siloxanyl styrene and fluoromethacrylate rigid gas permeable contact lens is a newly designed optical medical device used in orthokeratology with an FDA approval of continuous wear for up to 30 days. To assess the influence on the cornea an animal model was used and histological data were collected. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was performed on the used lenses. Our conclusions concedes that with respects of the material, doctor’s slit lamp lens observation on regular basis should be considered as surface debris and lens scratches can influence the cornea in extended wear. Keywords: siloxanyl styrene and fluoromethacrylate, rigid gas permeable contact lens, surface debris, extended
