Role of corneal biomechanical properties in predicting of speed of myopic progression in children wearing orthokeratology lenses or single-vision spectacles.

摘要: Objective To determine the characteristics of children who were likely to progress rapidly and gain greatest benefit from orthokeratology (ortho-k) treatment. Methods analysis The files 113 participated in two myopia control studies wore either ortho-k lenses (n=62) or single-vision spectacles (SVS) (n=51) reviewed. Baseline cycloplegic subjective refraction, central corneal thickness, axial length, keratometry, intraocular pressure, biomechanical properties 24-month length data retrieved analysed. Results Multivariate showed that there was significant negative correlation between elongation baseline age hysteresis (p<0.05) SVS group. In group, only significantly negatively associated with (p<0.01). Conclusion Corneal can predict rate myopic children. It may be beneficial for younger low commence treatment as early possible.
