Changes in corneal thickness, corneal volume, and densitometry after long-term orthokeratology wear.

Purpose: To investigate changes in the corneal volume, corneal densitometry and pachymetry of young myopes wearing over-night orthokeratology (OK) contact lenses.

Methods: The medical records of 28 right eyes of young myopes wearing OK between 2013 and 2018 were reviewed retrospectively. The baseline refractive error, best corrected visual acuities at baseline and uncorrected visual acuity at the most recent visit were recorded.

Trends in myopia management attitudes and strategies in clinical practice: Survey of eye care practitioners in Africa.

Purpose: There remains a lack of information on the perception and adoption of myopia control strategies among African eye care practitioners (ECPs). This study provides an African perspective to similar previous studies conducted in other parts of the world.

Methods: A self-administered survey in English and French was distributed to ECPs across Africa.

Practice of orthokeratology in Algeria: a retrospective study.

Purpose: To report the practice of orthokeratology (OK) in Algeria and to investigate the visual outcomes, safety and subjective responses with this technique in myopes.

Methods: A retrospective chart review of 48 participants using OK lenses since January 2010 were included in the study. Lenses were selected and fitted according to the manufacturer's recommendations using their respective software and the number of lenses required for a successful fit was recorded.
