[Orthokeratology for the high myopia and high astigmatism is worth watching]

The prevalence of high myopia in teenagers is rising. Due to both genetic factors and environmental factors, most of myopia occurs in early age with rapid progress, and the prevention and control are very difficult. Orthokeratology is considered as one of the most effective ways of controlling myopia for children. It is proved effective through many years of clinical studies not only for low to moderate myopia, but also for high myopia with astigmatism. However, professional knowledge is lacking domestically. This paper introduces the local and overseas research results in recent years, and discusses the necessity and feasibility of high diopter orthokeratology correction, implementation methods and requirements, and safety and effectiveness evaluation standards for reference.
