The younger the subject and the longer the duration of ortho-k lens wear, the more significant the corneal astigmatism change after discontinuation of the treatment.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>After 1-month discontinuation from long-term ortho-k lens wear, corneal flat K became flatter, steep K remained unchanged, the C-sagDiff and the corneal astigmatism increased, irrespective of whether spherical or toric lenses were used. The change of corneal astigmatism was about 0.25D on average, which was not clinically significant. There was no significant difference of corneal and refractive astigmatism change between spherical and toric ortho-k groups.</p>","PeriodicalId":49087,"journal":{"name":"Contact Lens & Anterior Eye","volume":" ","pages":"102365"},"PeriodicalIF":4.1,"publicationDate":"2025-01-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142928537","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
