Clinical studies on atropine for myopia control show mixed results, highlighting the need for more research on dosage and the differing outcomes between children in the U.S. and Asia.

Orthokeratology, often abbreviated as Ortho-K or OK, is a non-surgical method for managing myopia (nearsightedness). It involves the use of specially designed rigid gas-permeable contact lenses that are worn overnight. These lenses reshape the cornea temporarily, providing clear vision without the need for glasses or contact lenses during the day.
