Top Institutions in Ophthalmology - Myopia Control and Orthokeratology
Institutions leading in this field combine clinical trials on ortho-k lens design and fitting parameters with advanced corneal topography and axial length measurement technologies. They also contribute to evidence-based guidelines for myopia control and develop customized ortho-k lenses optimizing treatment zone size and centration.
