Dengan uji chi-square hasilanalisis menunjukkan terdapat hubungan bermakna antara jenis kelamin dengantingkat pengetahuan (p=0,036) dan terdapat hubungan bermakna antara tingkatpendidikan dengan tingkat pengetahuan (p=0,009). Oleh karena adanya hubunganyang signifikan secara statistik diantara kedua variabel ini maka perlu adanyaedukasi lebih lanjut mengenai pengetahuan pemakaian lensa kontak sehinggadiharapkan infeksi Acanthamoeba dapat dicegah
