Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of orthokeratology for different degrees of myopia correction in the relative location of tangential (F(T)) and sagittal (F(S)) power errors across the central 70° of the visual field in the horizontal meridian.
Methods: Thirty-four right eyes of 34 patients with a mean age of 25.2 ± 6.
Purpose: Higher myopic refractive errors are associated with serious ocular complications that can put visual function at risk. There is respective interest in slowing and if possible stopping myopia progression before it reaches a level associated with increased risk of secondary pathology. The purpose of this report was to review our understanding of the rationale(s) and success of contact lenses (CLs) used to reduce myopia progression.

Methods: Nineteen right eyes from 19 myopic patients (average central M ± SD = -2.67 ± 1.
Purpose: To compare visual performance with the Biofinity multifocal (MF) contact lens with monovision (MV) with the Biofinity single-vision contact lens.
Methods: A crossover study of 20 presbyopic patients was conducted. Patients were randomized first into either an MF or an MV lens for 15 days for each modality, with a washout period between each lens type.
