Changes in choroidal and retinal thickness 6 months before and during 18 months of orthokeratology lens treatment in myopic children

Acta Ophthalmologica, Volume 104, Issue 5, Page e578-e589, August 2026.
Abstract Purpose To investigate changes in choroidal and retinal thickness before and during myopia control treatment with orthokeratology lenses (OKL) in myopic children. Methods This was a sub‐study of CONTROL and CONTROL2 studies. The present study was a 2‐year, prospective, single‐group interventional study consisting of a 6‐month pre‐treatment ...

Duration‐Dependent Efficacy and Clinical Safety of Repeated Low‐Level Red‐Light Therapy for Paediatric Myopia: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Clinical &Experimental Ophthalmology, Volume 54, Issue 5, Page 630-652, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Repeated low‐level red‐light (RLRL) therapy is a novel, non‐invasive intervention for controlling paediatric myopia progression. Despite increasing clinical use, questions remain regarding the magnitude, durability, and safety of treatment effects.

Quality of Life in Myopia: Laser‐Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis Versus Contact Lenses

Eye &ENT Research, Volume 3, Issue 2, Page 75-82, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Laser‐assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) and contact lenses are commonly used to correct refractive errors, but their effects on quality of life, patient satisfaction, and dry eye disease remain variable. This study compares these outcomes between LASIK and contact lens users.

Effects of orthokeratology on central corneal thickness [PDF]

, 1998
Orthokeratology is the elimination, reduction, or change of myopic refractive error by programmed application of contact lenses. Accelerated ortho-k is a safe and effective alternative to refractive surgery, particularly for myopia of 3 D or less.

Prevalence and Associated Factors of Self‐Reported Myopia Among Undergraduate Students in the Northern Region of Bangladesh: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Myopia is an increasingly important public health concern worldwide, particularly among young adults. While previous research has applied machine learning techniques to identify myopia‐related risk factors, evidence based on traditional statistical models using the same datasets remains limited. This study aimed to estimate

Early choroidal thickness changes predict myopia control response to peripheral defocus spectacles in premyopic children

Optometry and Vision Science, Volume 103, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose To investigate whether early changes in choroidal thickness predict long‐term treatment response to peripheral defocus spectacles in premyopic children with insufficient hyperopic reserve. Methods Two hundred children aged 6–8 years with cycloplegic spherical equivalent refraction +0.25 to +0.75 diopters (D) and annual hyperopic ...
