Group of Optics and Visual Perception (GOPV), Department of Optics, Pharmacology, and Anatomy (A.S.-G., A.M.M., D.P.P.), University of Alicante, Spain; ARTORG Center for Biomedical Engineering Research, University of Bern (M.A.A.-G.), Bern, Switzerland; and Department of Ophthalmology, Vithas Medimar International Hospital (D.P.P.), Alicante, Spain.
Purpose: To characterize the clinical changes occurring in the initial phase of the orthokeratology (OK) treatment for myopia correction, developing a model of prediction of the refractive changes in such phase.
Methods: Prospective study enrolling 64 eyes of 32 patients (range, 20-40 years) undergoing myopic OK treatment with the reverse geometry contact lens CRT (Paragon Vision Science). Changes in uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) and best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), refraction, corneal topography, ocular aberrations, and corneal epithelial thickness were evaluated during the first hour of OK lens wear and after 1 week of OK treatment.
