“…Physical differences from others may affect peer appraisals and/or children may think that peer appraisals are influenced by their glasses (called ''meta-stereotypes''; Vorauer, Hunter, Main, & Roy, 2000). Four studies have directly assessed the association between eyeglasses and children's self-concept (Dias, Hyman, Manny, & Fern, 2005;Lyon, Rainey, & Bullock, 2002;Terry, Soni, & Honer, 1997;Walline et al, 2009), baseline results of two were reported in previous publications (Dias, Manny, Hyman, & Fern, 2002;Walline et al, 2006;Walline, Jones, & Prinstein, 2005). Lyon and colleagues (2002) studied self-concepts reported by children aged eight to fourteen and found no evidence that having eyeglasses affects the global self-concept of children, although this study lacked statistical power.…”

“…The Pediatric Refractive Error Profile survey, employed by Walline et al, will be employed to assess and compare vision-specific quality of life of those children in the OK and the SV groups, both at the 12-and the 24-month follow-up visits. 25,26 The survey was modified for both the OK and the SV groups and consists of 26 questions to which was added two additional questions:…”

PURPOSE:Although previous studies suggest that orthokeratology contact lens wear slows eye growth in children with progressing myopia, some limitations in the methodology employed have become evident. Furthermore, the safety of this modality of visual correction has not been assessed. The study "Myopia Control with Orthokeratology Contact Lenses in Spain" (MCOS) is being conducted to compare axial length growth between white European myopic children wearing orthokeratology contact lenses (OK) and wearing distance single-vision spectacles (SV). Additionally, the incidence of adverse events and discontinuations is also recorded. We outline the methodology and baseline data adopted. METHODS: Subjects aged 6 to 12, with myopia ranging from 0.75 to 4.00 D and astigmatism ≤1.00 D were prospectively allocated OK or SV correction. Measurements of axial length, anterior chamber depth, corneal topography, cycloplegic autorefraction, visual acuity and corneal staining are performed at 6-month intervals. The incidence of adverse events and discontinuations are also recorded. RESULTS: Thirty one children were fitted with OK and 31 with SV correction. Eight subjects did not meet the refraction-related inclusion criteria for enrollment. No significant differences were found in baseline mean age and refractive and biometric data between the two groups (P>0.05). No adverse events were found in any of the two groups at baseline. CONCLUSION: To the authors' knowledge, MCOS is the first prospective clinical trial to assess the safety and efficacy of orthokeratology contact lens wear to slow myopia progression vs. single-vision spectacle wear. The MCOS offers a number of notable features: prospective design; well-matched samples and high-resolution ocular biometry measures, which should collectively elucidate whether orthokeratology contact lens wear is a feasible and safe method for myopia-progression control.

RESUMEN OBJETIVO:A pesar de que estudios previos sugieren que el uso de lentes de contacto para ortoqueratología ralentizan el crecimiento ocular en niños con miopía progresiva, ha quedado de manifiesto algunas limitaciones en la metodología empleada en dichos estudios. Además, hasta la fecha no se ha evaluado la seguridad de esta modalidad de corrección visual. El estudio "Control de la miopía con lentes de contacto para ortoqueratología en España" (MCOS, según sus siglas en inglés) se está llevando a cabo para evaluar el aumento de la longitud axial ocular en niños miopes europeos de raza blanca, usuarios de lentes de contacto de ortoqueratología frente a usuarios de gafas monofocales. Además, también se está evaluando la incidencia de reacciones adversas y abandonos. En este artículo explicamos la metodología empleada, así como los datos iniciales del estudio. MÉTODOS: Se asignó de manera prospectiva corrección OK o SV a sujetos de entre 6 y 12 años de edad, con ...

“…A popular type of contact lens, soft contact lens was also tested to see whether it can be used to slow myopic progression in an Adolescent and Child Health Initiative to Encourage Vision Empowerment (ACHIEVE) study. 20 This randomized study was conducted over a span of 3years amongst ethnically diverse children (n=484) with a mean age of 10.4+1.1years. Based from the 3year trial, use of contact lenses did not show any significant increase clinically in myopic progression.…”
