摘要：
A method of determining a predisposition to contact lens discomfort in a patient is provided, comprising determining a detection threshold of the patient by delivering a cool mechanical stimulus to the cornea of the patient, optionally applying a series of cool mechanical stimuli to the cornea of the patient, and classifying the patient as being predisposed to contact lens discomfort if the detection threshold is at or below a cut-off value predetermined to be associated with predisposition to contact lens discomfort and/or the patient does not adapt to the series of cool mechanical stimuli.
