Summary

This study tested whether orthokeratology (OK) lenses, worn overnight, can slow the worsening of nearsightedness in children. 53 children aged 8 to 15 with mild to moderate myopia participated. The lenses work by changing how light focuses on the retina, which may reduce eye growth. The study measured changes in eye length and retinal focus over one year.
