Lid-parallel conjunctival folds (LIPCOF) and conjunctivochalasis (CCH) are similar conditions that seem to be related dry eye severity. In addition, there is a lack of studies on the topic LIPCOF CCH symptoms in non-contact lens contact (CL) wearers. Therefore, aim this study review relationship with non-CL CL wearers, as well report treatment disease (DED) wearers who present or CCH.
