There are different approaches to inhibiting myopia=short-sightedness. The main goal is always to slow down eye growth. This inhibition is particularly successful when care is started early.

By fitting orthokeratology contact lenses with a special geometry, progressive myopia in adolescents in the growth phase can ideally be stopped. Compared to other methods such as glasses or pharmaceuticals such as atropine with side effects, orthokeratology lenses are better suited for myopia control.

Multifocal orthokeratology contact lenses for children can help reduce the progression of myopia. ALL previous studies and specialist publications confirm a significant and effective slowing of the myopic eye. You may be reading about it here for the first time.

The aim of this treatment is a peripheral myopic defocus, in the retinal periphery a calculated myopia is induced. This may produce an inhibitory effect on myopia progression.
