[PMID: 38881171 DOI: 10.1111/opo.13347] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/22/2024] [Revised: 05/29/2024] [Accepted: 05/31/2024] [Indexed: 06/18/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE This study was conducted to determine whether orthokeratology (OK) lenses with a smaller back optic zone diameter (BOZD) could exhibit stronger myopia control effects. METHOD A meta-analysis was registered in PROSPERO (CRD42023408184). A comprehensive systematic database search was conducted, encompassing PubMed, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, MEDLINE, Web of Science, Ovid, CNKI and CBM, to identify relevant studies up to 25 March 2023. The primary inclusion criteria for this meta-analysis were studies that investigated the myopia control effect of OK lenses with a small optical treatment area (≤5 mm). To assess the quality of the retrieved articles, two researchers evaluated them using the Cochrane bias risk assessment criteria. The primary outcome measures were the changes in axial length (AL) and refractive error, using the weighted mean differences (WMD) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) to assess differences between small and traditional back optical treatment zone groups in terms of these outcomes. RESULTS The analysis encompassed five eligible studies, with a 1 year duration. The average difference in AL between the groups was 0.12 mm (WMD = -0.12, 95% CI [-0.16, -0.09], p < 0.00001). Likewise, the average difference in refractive error between the two groups was 0.44 D (WMD = 0.44, 95% CI [0.30, 0.57], p < 0.00001). None of the studies reported severe adverse events. CONCLUSIONS Current evidence suggests that OK lenses with smaller back optical treatment zone are more effective in preventing myopia progression than traditional lenses. However, a longer-term evaluation is warranted.

Eye Contact Lens 2024:00140068-990000000-00221. [PMID: 39186641 DOI: 10.1097/icl.0000000000001119] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 06/07/2024] [Indexed: 08/28/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the relationship between regional summed corneal refractive power changes (CRPCs) in myopic orthokeratology and axial elongation. DESIGN This retrospective study included 70 eyes of 70 patients aged 8 years to 13 years who underwent orthokeratology lens (OK lens) treatment, and all patients underwent regular follow-ups at 1 week, 1 month, 6 months, and 12 months at Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center between January 2019 and May 2021. METHODS Axial length (AL) was measured at baseline and 12 months by an IOLmaster 5.0. Refractive error power was measured using cycloplegia. Regional summed CRPCs were calculated by MATLAB software using difference tangential power maps at the sixth month acquired by corneal topography measurements (Medmont E300 Corneal Topographer; Medmont Pty, Victoria, Australia) and defined as changes in corneal refractive power at the sixth month from baseline. The regional summed CRPCs were then subdivided into 4-mm diameter circles, 4- to 5-mm diameter chords, and 5- to 6-mm diameter chords according to the distance from the central of the pupil and into negative, positive, and total according to the values. Pearson correlation, multiple linear regression analysis, and stepwise multiple linear regression analysis were performed to analyze the relationships among these parameters. RESULTS Axial elongation had a negative relationship with positive regional summed corneal refractive power in the central 4-mm diameter circle and age (r=-0.282, P=0.018; r=-0.473, P<0.001, respectively) and a positive relationship with negative regional summed corneal refractive power in the 5- to 6-mm diameter chord (r=0.361, P=0.002). Stepwise multiple linear regression analysis identified age (standardized β=-0.434, P<0.001) and negative regional summed corneal refractive power in the 5- to 6-mm diameter chord (standardized β=0.305, P=0.004) as factors influencing AL elongation. CONCLUSION Negative regional summed corneal refractive power in a 5- to 6-mm diameter chord after OK lens treatment may be an important index for evaluating the control effects of axial elongation.

Cont Lens Anterior Eye 2024; 47:102131. [PMID: 38403480 DOI: 10.1016/j.clae.2024.102131] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/10/2023] [Revised: 02/17/2024] [Accepted: 02/21/2024] [Indexed: 02/27/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the influence of corneal parameters on the treatment zone area (TZA) after Corneal Refractive Therapy (CRT) with a 5.0-mm back optical zone diameter (BOZD) were worn and to compare changes in the axial length (AL) with traditional 6.0-mm BOZD lenses. METHODS This retrospective study involved 146 subjects (7-12 years) who wore orthokeratology (ortho-K) lenses for one year: 86 subjects were treated with CRT 5.0-mm lenses, and 60 subjects were treated with CRT 6.0-mm lenses. The TZA was measured after one year of ortho-K treatment. Both TZA and AL elongation after wearing the two kinds of lenses was compared. The parameters were recorded in the CRT 5.0 group: flat K, steep K, corneal toricity, e value, and anterior corneal elevation values at the 3-, 4-, and 5-mm chords along the principal meridians of the superior, inferior, nasal, and temporal sides. The relationships between these data and the TZA were analyzed. RESULTS The TZA was 12.90 ± 5.15 mm2 and 20.61 ± 4.54 mm2, and the AL elongation was 0.15 ± 0.18 mm and 0.26 ± 0.18 mm in the CRT 5.0 group and the CRT 6.0 group, respectively (all p < 0.001). The one-year AL elongation was significantly associated with initial age and the TZA (r = - 0.394, 0.393; all p < 0.001) in the CRT 5.0 group. The following corneal parameters were found to have statistically significant correlations with the TZA: the e value, difference in corneal elevation (nasal-temporal at the 3-, 4-, and 5-mm chord), and the absolute value of elevation difference (nasal-temporal at the 3- and 4-mm chord and inferior-superior at the 3-, 4-, and 5-mm chord). The e value was the only relevant factor for the TZA by multiple regression analysis (unstandardized β = 14.219, p = 0.008). In the CRT 6.0 group, the one-year AL elongation was statistically significantly associated only with initial age (r = - 0.605, p = 0.005), but not with the TZA (p = 0.161). CONCLUSIONS A smaller TZA induced by a smaller BOZD may be beneficial for retarding AL elongation in children undergoing ortho-K treatment. The morphology and eccentricity of the cornea may show effects on the TZA.

Abstract
PURPOSE With the rising prevalence of myopia, especially among the young, orthokeratology (Ortho-K) stands out as a promising approach, not only to reduce myopia but also to control the progression of axial length (AL). This study examined how the intersection area between the pupil and defocus ring influenced retinal defocus and axial growth after Ortho-K. METHODS A case-control study was conducted with 100 participants (100 eyes). Both AL and the refraction difference value (RDV), that is, the peripheral refractive error measured with respect to the central value after wearing Ortho-K lenses, were determined. Subjects were categorised into two groups based on the size of the intersection area after 3 months of lens wear: Group A (<4.58 mm2 ) and Group B (≥4.58 mm2 ). RESULTS Group B demonstrated significantly lower changes in AL and RDV at 30-40° and 40-53° compared with Group A after 3 months of lens wear (all p < 0.05). After 6 months of lens wear, Group B showed significantly lower changes in AL and RDV in the 40-53° region compared with Group A (all p < 0.05). Correlation analysis revealed that as the intersection area increased, the changes in AL and RDV at 0-53°, 30-40° and 40-53° eccentricity decreased after both 3 and 6 months of lens wear (all p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS A larger intersection area between the pupil and defocus ring within a certain time period can cause a greater amount of myopic defocus at 30-53° from the fovea. The results suggest that a larger intersection area might lead to more effective control of axial growth.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the influence factors of the treatment zone diameter (TZD) and its relationship with axial length growth (ALG) after wearing Paragon CRT and Euclid orthokeratology lenses. METHODS The right eye data of myopic patients wearing Paragon CRT and Euclid orthokeratology in the ophthalmology department of The First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University were retrospectively reviewed from April 2019 to October 2022. The TZD and ALG were compared between the Paragon CRT and Euclid groups. The correlation factors of TZD after wearing lens for 1 month and the relationship between the overlapping treatment zone-to-pupil area ratio and the ALG after wearing lens for 1 year were analyzed between the two groups. RESULTS There were 160 patients (160 eyes) in the Paragon CRT group and 155 patients (155 eyes) in the Euclid group. After wearing lens for 1 month, the TZD in the Paragon CRT group (3.72±0.37 mm) was larger than that in the Euclid group (3.26±0.37 mm) ( P <0.001). The stepwise multivariate linear regression analysis showed that the eccentricity at the flattest meridians (Em) and the central corneal thickness were correlated with the TZD in both groups ( P <0.05). After wearing lens for 1 year, the ALG in the Paragon CRT group (0.32±0.20 mm) was larger than that in the Euclid group (0.25±0.20 mm) ( P =0.001). The stepwise multivariate linear regression analysis showed that the initial wearing age and the overlapping treatment zone area-to-pupil area ratio were correlated with the ALG in both groups ( P <0.05). CONCLUSION For both the Paragon CRT and Euclid orthokeratology, the wearers with thicker central corneal thickness and smaller Em usually had a smaller TZD. In both groups, the overlapping treatment zone area-to-pupil area ratio was correlated with the ALG.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the effect of orthokeratology (ortho-k) using aspheric or spherical base curve (BCA vs. BCS) contact lenses on axial elongation and the relative peripheral refraction change (RPRC) in Chinese children. METHODS Children aged 8-12 years with myopia between -0.75 and -4.00 D and astigmatism ≤1.00 D were randomly assigned to the BCA or BCS group. Peripheral refraction was assessed at 10°, 20° and 30° along the temporal and nasal retina at baseline and at the 12-month visit. Axial length (AL) was measured under cycloplegia at baseline and at the 6- and 12-month visits. Only right eye data were analysed. Repeated-measures analysis of covariance was performed to examine the differences in axial elongation and the RPRC between the BCA and BCS groups. RESULTS The 1-year results from 31 BCA and 32 BCS subjects were analysed. No significant between-group differences were found at baseline (p ≥ 0.28). At the 12-month visit, the BCA lens produced a greater absolute RPRC along the horizontal meridian than the BCS lens (p < 0.001). Axial elongation was slower in the BCA group (0.19 ± 0.20 mm) than in the BCS group (0.29 ± 0.14 mm; p = 0.03). Axial elongation was correlated with the RPRC at 10° (r = 0.43, p = 0.02) and 20° (r = 0.39, p = 0.03) along the temporal retina in the BCA group; however, these correlations were not observed in the BCS group. CONCLUSION The BCA ortho-k lens could improve the efficacy of slowing axial elongation in children. The improved myopia control observed in the BCA group may be the result of a larger myopic shift in relative peripheral refraction within 20° along the temporal retina.

EYE AND VISION (LONDON, ENGLAND) 2023; 10:43. [PMID: 37805535 PMCID: PMC10559459 DOI: 10.1186/s40662-023-00358-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/01/2023] [Accepted: 09/06/2023] [Indexed: 10/09/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND To compare axial elongation in 8-11-year-old myopes wearing orthokeratology (OK) lenses with different back optic zone diameters (BOZD), defocus incorporated soft contact (DISC) lenses, and single-vision soft contact lenses (SCLs). METHODS A total of 122 children (aged 8-11 years) with spherical equivalent refraction (SER) between - 1.00 D and - 4.00 D were enrolled in this prospective study and randomly assigned to four groups: 5.0 mm-BOZD OK, 6.2 mm-BOZD OK, DISC, and single-vision SCLs. Children in each group were further divided into subgroups stratified by the average baseline SER: low myopic eyes (SER: - 1.00 D to - 2.50 D) and moderate myopic eyes (SER: - 2.50 D and over). Axial length (AL) was measured at baseline and after one year. RESULTS The 5.0 mm-BOZD OK, 6.2 mm-BOZD OK, and DISC groups exhibited significantly slower AL elongation than the SCL group. The proportion of slow progressors (AL elongation ≤ 0.18 mm/year) in the first three groups was 42%, 23%, and 29%, respectively. Furthermore, one-year AL elongation was significantly smaller in the 5.0 mm-BOZD OK group compared with the 6.2 mm-BOZD OK group. Regardless of SER, children in the 5.0 mm-BOZD OK and DISC groups showed comparably slower AL elongation than those in the SCL group. However, fitting with 6.2 mm-BOZD OK lenses significantly retarded AL elongation in moderate myopic eyes, but not in low myopic eyes. CONCLUSIONS Overall, 5.0 mm-BOZD OK lenses, 6.2 mm-BOZD OK lenses, and DISC lenses were effective in retarding AL elongation in 8-11-year-old myopes compared with single-vision SCLs, but for children with SER less than - 2.50 D, fitting with 5.0 mm-BOZD OK lenses and DISC lenses yielded better myopia control efficacy compared to wearing single-vision SCLs or 6.2 mm-BOZD OK lenses.

Abstract
Orthokeratology (OK) is becoming a mainstream modality for myopia correction and control, but its underlying mechanism is not yet fully understood. In this study, the biomechanical response of cornea under the OK lens was investigated to further understand the mechanism of OK therapy. Numerical models of the cornea and OK lens with different corneal refractive powers and myopia degrees were established to analyze features and differences of the spatial displacement and stress distribution in different areas of the anterior corneal surface by finite element method. Displacement distributions on the anterior cornea surface with refractive powers of 39.5, 43, 46 D, and myopia degrees of -1.0, -3.0, -6.0 D demonstrate similar deformation trends and nearly rotationally symmetrical attributes of different corneal parameters. Displacement of mid-peripheral cornea was significantly high compared with that of the central and peripheral cornea, peaking at ~2.4 mm off the corneal apex. The stress increased with the increase in myopia degrees and was significantly large for the myopia degrees of -6.0 D at S1; the stress at S2 and S6 was low and stable and did not differ much at S3; the stress at S4 and S5, however, was extremely high. In summary, simulation result of orthokeratology can effectively evaluate the performance of OK lens and it properly associates with the differential map of the corneal topography. The base curve of the OK lens may also play a role in mid-peripheral corneal steepening. The design around the OK lens' alignment curve needs to be optimized.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To estimate the original corneal curvature after orthokeratology by applying a machine learning-based algorithm. METHODS A total of 497 right eyes of 497 patients undergoing overnight orthokeratology for myopia for more than 1 year were enrolled in this retrospective study. All patients were fitted with lenses from Paragon CRT. Corneal topography was obtained by a Sirius corneal topography system (CSO, Italy). Original flat K (K1) and original steep K (K2) were set as the targets of calculation. The importance of each variable was explored by Fisher's criterion. Two machine learning models were established to allow adaptation to more situations. Bagging Tree, Gaussian process, support vector machine (SVM), and decision tree were used for prediction. RESULTS K2 after one year of orthokeratology (K2after) was most important in the prediction of K1 and K2. Bagging Tree performed best in both models 1 and 2 for K1 prediction (R = 0.812, RMSE = 0.855 in model 1 and R = 0.812, RMSE = 0.858 in model 2) and K2 prediction (R = 0.831, RMSE = 0.898 in model 1 and R = 0.837, RMSE = 0.888 in model 2). In model 1, the difference was 0.006 ± 1.34 D (p = 0.93) between the predictive value of K1 and the true value of K1 (K1before) and was 0.005 ± 1.51 D(p = 0.94) between the predictive value of K2 and the true value of K2 (K2before). In model 2, the difference was -0.056 ± 1.75 D (p = 0.59) between the predictive value of K1 and K1before and was 0.017 ± 2.01 D(p = 0.88) between the predictive value of K2 and K2before. CONCLUSION Bagging Tree performed best in predicting K1 and K2. Machine learning can be applied to predict the corneal curvature for those who cannot provide the initial corneal parameters in the outpatient clinic, providing a relatively certain degree of reference for the refitting of the Ortho-k lenses.

Abstract
PURPOSE To characterize the clinical changes occurring in the initial phase of the orthokeratology (OK) treatment for myopia correction, developing a model of prediction of the refractive changes in such phase. METHODS Prospective study enrolling 64 eyes of 32 patients (range, 20-40 years) undergoing myopic OK treatment with the reverse geometry contact lens CRT (Paragon Vision Science). Changes in uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) and best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), refraction, corneal topography, ocular aberrations, and corneal epithelial thickness were evaluated during the first hour of OK lens wear and after 1 week of OK treatment. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to obtain a model to predict the short-term refractive effect of OK. RESULTS The UCVA improved at each visit, reaching normal visual acuity values after a week (P<0.001) of OK treatment, which was consistent with the significant spherical equivalent (SE) reduction and central flattening (P<0.001). Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that one night change in refraction (ΔR×1N) could be predicted according to the following expression (P<0.001, R2=0.686): ΔR×1N=1.042+0.028×Age+1.014×BCET (baseline central epithelium thickness)-0.752×BKm (baseline mean keratometry)-1.405×BSE (baseline SE)+1.032×ΔR×1 h (change in SE after 1 hr of OK lens use). Similarly, a statistically relevant linear relationship was obtained for predicting the refractive change after 1 week (ΔR×1W) of OK use (P<0.001, R2=0.928): ΔR×1W=3.470-1.046×BSE-1.552×BBCVA (baseline BCVA)-0.391×BKm+0.450×ΔR×1 h. CONCLUSIONS The immediate and short-term refractive effects of myopic OK with the reverse geometry contact lens CRT can be predicted with enough accuracy from baseline and first trial visits data.

The effect of corneal power distribution on axial elongation in children using three different orthokeratology lens designs. Cont Lens Anterior Eye 2023; 46:101749. [PMID: 36008212 DOI: 10.1016/j.clae.2022.101749] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 12.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/20/2022] [Revised: 08/06/2022] [Accepted: 08/12/2022] [Indexed: 01/18/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the correlation between spatial corneal power distribution and one-year axial length (AL) elongation using three ortho-k lens designs by a unified mathematical method. METHODS A total of 137 subjects were included: 42 with Euclid lenses, 28 with DRL lenses, and 67 with CRT lenses. AL elongation, Xmax, Ymax and power exponent were compared among the three groups. One-year relative corneal refractive power change (RCRPC) was calculated by a polynomial function and a monomial function. Factors including age, baseline spherical equivalent refractive error (SER), Xmax, Ymax and power exponent was tested against one-year AL growth in a stepwise multiple linear regression model. RESULTS The power exponent (F = 7.29, P = 0.0012) and Xmax (F = 62.88, P < 0.0001) of the DRL group was significantly smaller than that of the other two lens groups. Ymax was not significantly different among three lens groups (F = 1.18, P = 0.31). The one-year AL elongation of the DRL group (0.09 ± 0.14 mm) was significantly slower than that of the Euclid group (0.26 ± 0.14 mm, P = 0.002) and CRT group (0.32 ± 0.18 mm, P < 0.0001). AL elongation was significantly correlated with Xmax (standardized β = 0.196, P = 0.003), power exponent (standardized β = 0.644, P < 0.001), and age (standardized β = -0.263, P < 0.001), with R2 being 0.608. CONCLUSION A smaller and more aspheric treatment zone may be beneficial for reducing axial elongation in children undergoing ortho-k treatment, regardless of their baseline myopic refractive error.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare axial elongation, relative corneal refractive power (RCRP) distribution within the pupillary diameter, and corneal higher-order aberrations (HOAs) in myopic children wearing orthokeratology (ortho-k) lenses with different back optic zone diameters (BOZD). METHODS Children aged 8-11 years were fitted with 5.0 or 6.2 mm-BOZD ortho-k lenses (groups A and B, respectively). Axial length (AL) and corneal topography were measured at baseline and during the annual visit. RCRP and corneal HOAs were compared between the two groups after one-year treatment. Multivariate linear regression analysis was performed to determine the association between AL elongation and RCRP parameters, corneal HOAs, and other variables between the groups. RESULTS After one-year treatment, axial elongation was slower in group A than in group B, with a difference of 0.15 mm. Children in group A showed smaller treatment zone size, smaller 3/4X value (describing the distance from the apex RCRP profile rising to its three-quarter-peak level), greater RCRP sum value within the pupillary area, and higher increases in corneal total HOAs and horizontal coma (Z31). AL elongation was significantly correlated with baseline age, baseline spherical equivalent refraction (SER), treatment zone size, and 3/4X value. CONCLUSIONS Ortho-k lenses designed with smaller BOZD increased myopia control efficacy, induced a steeper distribution of the RCRP profile within the pupillary diameter, and induced greater increases in corneal total HOAs and horizontal coma (Z31). Lens-induced RCRP profile within pupillary diameter, rising to its three-quarter-peak level at a smaller distance, may show a better myopia control effect.
