Tinea pedis is the term used for a dermatophyte infection of the soles of the feet and the interdigital spaces. Tinea pedis is most commonly caused by Trichophyton rubrum, a dermatophyte initially endemic only to a small region of Southeast Asia and in parts of Africa and Australia.he interdigital type of tinea pedis is usually caused by T rubrum. It is more pruritic in hot, humid environments. Other possible causative organisms in tinea pedis include T mentagrophytes var interdigitale and E floccosum. Hyperhidrosis is a risk factor for infection.
If there's a contact lens in your eye when you're sleeping, then the contact lens acts as a barrier between the closed eyelid and the cornea, and it's fairly tight over the surface of the cornea, Taylor tells HuffPost.
If you wear contact lenses you must stop wearing them prior to surgeryâat least two weeks for soft contacts and one month for hard contacts. This is because contact lenses can cause mild warping of the corneal shape, which may interfere with the preoperative measurements of the eye and calculations for RLE surgery.
