Optical Biometry Changes Throughout Childhood and Adolescence in Patients Wearing Ortho-K Lenses.

In our population, Ortho-K did not appear to affect the overall trajectory of axial length progression when compared to normal growth curves, despite showing a previously described reduction in corneal thickness. As Ortho-K has been shown to have varying effects that differ from individual to individual, it continues to be important to reassess its effects on new populations to better understand its ideal uses.
