Adaptation de lentille orthokeratologi:CAS MYOPE

Abstract

Orthokeratology temporarily reduces myopia using gas-permeable rigid lenses at night. These lenses reshape the corneal epithelium predictably, temporarily, and reversibly. Custom-made based on corneal topography, the lenses are removed upon waking, providing clear vision throughout the day without optical aids. This study aims to establish the adaptation protocol, including pre-adaptation examination, trial lens selection, and evaluation. Two case studies highlight parameters for prescribing orthokeratology lenses. Statistical analysis compares successful adaptation to dissatisfaction among patients due to irregular sleep or unsatisfactory visual results. The study's primary objective is to introduce and demonstrate the effectiveness, tolerance, and safety of this technique in Algeria.
