An ortho-k lens is not necessarily a myopia control lens

This article examines the extent of orthokeratology lenses for myopia control vs myopia management in children. The authors discuss design options for Ortho-lenses and conclude, based on clinical studies, that not all Ortho-lenses are suitable for myopia control; most designs may be applicable for myopia correction only.

Abstract

This article examines the extent of orthokeratology lenses for myopia control vs myopia management in children. The authors discuss design options for Ortho-lenses and conclude, based on clinical studies, that not all Ortho-lenses are suitable for myopia control; most designs may be applicable for myopia correction only.
