Course Description
This workshop focuses on orthokeratology treatment and how it fits into practice today. Practitioners will understand its application for myopia control in children as well as its use in adult population. The various pre-fit procedures and analysis will be discussed along with the initial lens determination and evaluation. Then heavy emphasis will be placed on the post wear analysis which includes the slit lamp exam, acuity and corneal topography response. The follow-up, ongoing care and problem solving will also be reviewed. Attendees will also have the opportunity in the course to evaluate cases both pre-fit and post wear.

Early Attempts to Reduce Corneal CurvatureAncient Chinese used sandbags on
eyes at night to flatten cornealcurvature
Early Attempts to Reduce Corneal CurvatureDr. J. Bell – 1850 Developed an eye cup
with spring mounted plunger to pound thecornea flat through the closed eye
Early Attempts to Reduce Corneal Curvature
Kalt (1888) – Used glass scleral lenses“to flatten the corneal apex in keratoconus”
The Beginnings of Orthokeratology

Clinical Studies:A Brief History (PMMA)
• Jesson (1962) • Neilson and Grant (1964)• Ziff (1968)• May and Grant (1971)• Nolan (1972)• Freeman (1974) • Kerns (1976 - 1978)• May and Grant (1977) • Freeman (1978)• Polse et al - the Berkeley
Study (1983)• Tabb and Coon (1982 - 1984)
Challenges
• Decentration• Comfort• Rx limitations
Early studies showed…
• Modest reduction in myopia (approx. 1.00 – 1.50Dp)
• Individual variability, poor predictability
• Induction of astigmatism due to poor lens centration
• The procedure was safe
• Regression to baseline over weeks to months after ceasing lens wear.
Reverse Geometry OrthokLens Designs
Jesson (1964) Hypothesis of the Ideal Lens “It would be necessary to grind a concave surface with a flatter portion in its centre and steep portion peripherally. The center portion would act to flatten the corneal apex. The intermediate portion would act to centre the lens.”
Fontana (1972)First to use a reverse geometry lens design for orthokeratology
BC 1.00 D. flatter than “K” Lens periphery fitted on “K”
Posterior OZ 6.0 mm
Center Mid-Periphery

Advantages of Reverse Geometry Lens Designs
Include:• Improved lens centration
• Rapid corneal flattening effects• Relatively large optic zone created• Good retention of effect (all day)
Rebirth ofOrthokeratology 2000
• Reverse geometry lens designs• High Dk RGP lens materials• Instruments for detailed topographic analysis• Improved fitting techniques• Overnight reshaping modality• Greater understanding as to how OK works
Overnight FDA Approval for Corneal Refractive Therapy
January 2002 FDA panel approval forovernight corneal reshaping with the

Lens Designs for Corneal Reshaping• BE Free System• BE Retainer Design• BOSLOW• Contex OK-E System • Corneal Refractive Therapy
Pre-fitting: Simulated In Office Fit13 minutes of wear
Don’t rush to conclusions…Orthokeratology full effect is 7-10 days
Alharbi, Swarbrick, 2004
Is Orthokeratology Safe?
Watt and Swarbrick, 2008U. Of New South Wales – ROK Group129 reported cases from 2001 - 2008
MK Incidence
• UNSW-Vision CRC: Stapleton, Keay, Edwards, et al. (’03-’04)
• Incidence per 10,000• 19.5 ON wear *• 10 Occasional ON *• 2 Daily Disposable *• 1.7 Daily Wear *• 1.2 RGP
• * Includes all soft material types
• UK case Control Study: Radford, Minassion, Dart et. Al. (’03-’05)
• Relative Risk (Daily Disp1.0 – reference)
• 5.3x ON wear *• 1.9x Occasional ON *• 1.6x Daily Wear*• 0.16x RGP
• * Includes all soft material types
FDA Post Marketing StudyMark Bullimore MCOptom, PhD, FAAO
Ohio State University
2010 Global Specialty Lens Symposium
Las Vegas NV
• 1316 patients 639 adults (49%) 677 children (51%)
• 2 events of microbial keratitis (neither case resulted in a loss of visual acuity)
“The risk of MK with overnight corneal reshaping is similar to that with other overnight contact lens
modalities”
Is Orthokeratology Safe?
• Koffler et al, Eye & Contact Lens (2016)• 3 ophthalmology practices• 260 eyes• Conclusion: “Orthokeratology is a safe,
effective method to correct myopia. Only 1.4% of patients were unresponsive to the correction”
• Liu et al, Eye & Contact Lens (2016)• 170 publications (58 English, 112 Chinese)• Years: 1980 - 2015• Conclusions: “There is sufficient evidence to
suggest that OrthoK is a safe option for myopia correction and retardation. Long-term success of OrthoK treatment requires a combination of proper lens fitting, rigorous compliance to lens care regimen, good adherence to routine follow-ups, and timely treatment of complications.”

Vitreous Chamber ElongationAfter 24 Months
Incidence (1999-2009)• 17% Poland• 35% Spain• 50% US• 50% UK• 60% Japan• 74% Singapore• 78% China• 80% Hong Kong
Prevalence of Myopia East Asia

Greater than 80% in Hong Kong, Taiwan & Singapore
5 to 7% in rural, uneducated groups (Morgan 2006)
5% in grandparents in Hong Kong (Lam 1994)
Suggest environmental factors rather than genetic factors are responsible for influx
of myopia.

GPs to Induce Peripheral Myopic DefocusPaune et al, Optometry & Vision Science (2015)
• N = 52• One eye fit with two designs
• Standard GP• Novel Gp
• Results• Standard: 100% had hyper peri defocus• Novel GP: 60% had myopic peri defocus
>1Dp
Conclusions: “Custom-designed RGP contact lenses can generate a significant degree of relative peripheral myopia in myopic patients regardless of their baseline spherical equivalent refractive error”
• “Both orthok and dual focus SCLs are effective strategies for targeting myopia progression in the clinic. We saw no significant difference in the efficacy of the two methods in this regard, and so we believe there are very few barriers for any contact lens practitioner to be actively promoting myopia control treatment to at-risk patients

Multifocal SCL’s
Soft Multifocals VsSingle Vision Spectacles
• Pomeda et al, 2017• N=74, 41 in MF, 33 in SV• 8-12 years old• Myopia -0.75 to -4.00• Evaluated at 12 and 24 months• Quality of life scores higher in
MF group• Near vision was significantly
better in the SV group at both 12 and 24 months (P < 0.001)
Adolescent vision with soft multifocal lenses
• Kang et al, 2017• N = 24• Cooper ProClear MF• Adds: +1.50 and +3.00• High and Low Contrast
reduced initially• Low contrast VA continued to
be affected after 2 weeks• “the study determined that
clinicians should educate patients about these effects on vision”
