Ophthalmic optics - Contact lenses - Hygienic management of multipatient use trial contact lenses
This Malaysian Standard provides guidance to contact lens manufacturers for the development of information to be provided to eye care practitioners for the hygienic management of trial soft and rigid gas-permeable (RGP) contact lenses intended for multipatient use.
This Malaysian Standard does not address:
a) national regulations for labelling of contact lenses; and
b) the inactivation of prions since there are no reported cases of transmission of prions by
contact lenses.
NOTE. This Malaysian Standard acknowledges that risk factors for possible transmission of specific diseases by use of trial contact lenses on multiple patients may vary by country or other political or geographical barriers. Legal requirements involving national practices or regulations take precedence over this standard.
