Results The positive rate of bacterial culture in the contact lens cases was 43.96%(40/91). Compared with the positive culture group, the negative group performed better in hand hygiene (χ2=17.624, P<0.01), and the frequency of the case sterilization in the negative group (χ2=43.754, P<0.01), cleaning frequency (χ2=69.737, P<0.01) were higher than the positive group. In the choice of cleaning methods, the proportion of using brushing (χ2=65.441, P<0.01) and re-rinsing (χ2=59.663, P<0.01) in the negative group was higher than that of the positive group. The results were all statistically different.Conclusion The present condition of hygiene compliance of the orthokeratology lens wearers in Wenzhou is not so well, and it needs to be further improved.
