 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 17 Rigid gas-permeable contact lenses for keratoconus in shaping the role of 【Abstract】 Objective: To evaluate the rigid gas permeable contact lenses (rigid gas permeable contact lens, RGPCL) wearing a long-term safety and shaping the role of the corneal shape. Methods: Patients with keratoconus matching candidates of high oxygen permeability RGPCL, respectively, to wear before and after wearing 12,18 months line keratometer and corneal topography examination, collection of central corneal astigmatism value, cone top K values, cone top eccentric distance, SRI, SAI and other parameters were statistically analyzed. Results: The mild group, the wearing of corneal astigmatism after RGPCL, cone top-K value, cone-top eccentric distance, SRI, SAI than to wear the former were significantly lower (P lt;0.05); moderate group, in addition to 12 months cone top eccentric distance, the value of corneal astigmatism than wearing no significant change before, the other parameters are also significantly lower at 18 months fell more obvious; severe group, 12 months In addition to the top cone was significantly reduced K , the other parameters not changed much, except at 18 months eccentric cone top no significant change in the distance, the other parameters significantly reduced. All the patients were not complications. Conclusion: The rigid contact lenses of high permeability, long-term wear is safe and certain forms of keratoconus shaping role, so as to achieve to reduce or control of keratoconus development. Keywords: keratoconus contact lens shaping the role of A Effect of rigid gas permeable contact lens on keratoconus [ABSTRACT] Objective: To evaluate the safety and the orthokeratic effect of long  term wearing of rigid gas permeable contact lens (RGPCL). Methods: A total of 366 eyes with keratoconus were subjected to wear proper RGPCL. Keratometer and corneal topography were used to determine the central cornea astigmatism
