Ortho-K Peripheral Refraction Parameters Can Predict Axial Elongation Rate

October 16, 2025
Peripheral myopic defocus induced by ortho-K lenses may be a primary mechanism for slowing axial elongation. The current study found that the minimum defocus distance formed by ortho-K lens reshaping was significantly positively correlated with the monthly axial elongation rate. The minimum defocus distance appears to reflect the degree of defocus decentration to a certain extent; that is to say,
