: The objective of this study was to examine the trend of treatment zone (TZ) decentration over 12 months of orthokeratology (OK) wear using two Corneal Refractive Therapy (CRT) lens designs: standard (STD) and dual axis (DA). : A prospective, randomized, longitudinal study was conducted at the Optometry Clinic of the Complutense University of Madrid. Subjects were randomly fitted with an STD design or DA design in one of the eyes.

Methods: Three CL materials: rigid gas permeable (RGP), hydrogel (Hy), and silicone hydrogel (SiHy), were contaminated with 1x10 amoebae/ml and incubated for 24 h at 30 °C. After contamination, pre-cleaning steps were performed before using four maintenance solutions based on hydrogen peroxide (HP), sodium hypochlorite (SH), povidone-iodine (PI), and a multipurpose solution (MS).
Objetive: To assess differences in corneal higher-order aberrations (i.e., HOAs) between six different types of irregular corneas (i.

- * There is a need for new, non-invasive treatment methods, as current approaches are often invasive and risky, and research on topical drug delivery has seen limited success.
- * This review synthesizes findings from 40 studies on nanocarriers designed for targeted drug delivery to the posterior eye, outlining strategies for overcoming ocular barriers effectively.
