Abstract:
Myopia is a common ophthalmic disease that endangers the health of eyes all over the world. The incidence rate of myopia is high in China. Myopia has become the most prominent problem affecting the health of young people's eyes. Myopia prevention and control work has become urgent. Periretinal hyperopia defocusing is one of the main causes of myopia, and the defocusing soft lenses involved based on this principle have played a good role in myopia prevention and control. This article summarizes the working principle of defocusing soft lenses for controlling myopia and its impact on corneal and visual function, and evaluates the prevention and control effect of defocusing soft lenses on myopia based on current research.
