Moreover, it is cost-effective as compared to laser surgeries. Orthokeratology contact lenses are gaining significant traction with the method of slowing the progression of myopia in children. It is an alternative method to correct refractive errors using custom-designed rigid lenses, which modify the curvature of cornea for short duration. In recent years, the most common clinical application of ortho-k is for the reduction of myopia through corneal flattening.
