Presented by Prof. Pauline Cho (Hong Kong Polytechnic University)

Prof. Cho has conducted several myopia control studies using OK lenses (Z Night) in Hong Kong under a collaborative research agreement with Menicon. She found that OK lenses reduced the eye elongation compared to control group (single vision glasses). She also introduced the relationship between fast eye elongation and the age of children, and explained how to monitor children before considering the management.
