“…Atropine, a muscarinic antagonist, has been shown to inhibit myopia progression by slowing axial elongation of the eyeball. [11][12][13] On the other hand, OK lenses are rigid contact lenses designed to temporarily reshape the cornea, providing clear vision without the need for glasses or daytime contact lenses. [14] Possible mechanisms include improvement in peripheral retinal defocus and application of positive pressure to the central cornea.…”

“…The prevalence of myopia and high myopia (≤-6D) is increasing excessively worldwide [12]Myopia prevalence rates are higher in Asian cities like Hong Kong, Singapore, Asia, and Taiwan [13]This prevalence is linked to urbanization, lifestyle changes, and higher rates of literacy and education. Increased myopia can cause pathologies like retinal detachment, cataract glaucoma, staphyloma myopic, macular degeneration [10,21,26], and myopic choroidal neovascularization (CNV) and it is one of the causes of blindness in many Countries [10,20,21]. However, what is worrying is that young people are on the front lines.…”
