Interaction of retinal electrophysiology and novel orthokeratology lens use on myopia control efficacy in children.

ABSTRACT:

Aims

The relationship between retinal electrophysiological function and myopia progression was evaluated in school-aged children wearing Breath-O-Correct Orthokeratology (OK) lenses compared with those wearing single vision (SV) lenses over 24 months.

Methods

In this randomised, single-blind, parallel controlled trial, children aged 8-12 years with -1.00 to -4.00 D of myopia were recruited. Retinal function was evaluated using global-flash multifocal electroretinography at baseline before OK or SV treatment. Axial length was evaluated at 6-month intervals up to 24 months. The main outcome measures were axial elongation (AE) between groups and the interactive effect of baseline retinal function.

Results

A total of 70 children (43 OK, 9.8±1.3 years; 27 SV, 9.5±1.4 years
