Abstract:
Objective To compare the efficacy of controlling pediatric myopia progression between defocus incorpo-rated multiple segments(DIMS)spectacle lenses combined with low-concentration atropine(0.1 g·L-1)(DIMSA)and orthokeratology(OK)lenses.Methods A prospective cohort study was conducted on myopic children treated at the De-partment of Ophthalmology,Children's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University between January 2022 and February 2023.Participants were divided into a DIMSA group(88 cases)and an OK lens group(73 cases).Only right eye data were in-cluded for statistical analysis,and the children were followed up for 1 year.The axial length(AL)and spherical equivalent refraction(SER)were measured for the DIMSA group while only AL was measured for the OK lens group at baseline and each follow-up visit.The AL regression rate[(AL regression rate=the number of AL regression cases/total cases in the group)× 100%]and axial elongation(AE)were calculated to compare the myopia control efficacy between the two groups.Results The baseline age of the OK lens group was significantly larger than that of the DIMSA group(P=0.001).The AE value in the DIMSA group was significantly smaller than that in the OK lens group after following up for 6 months,following up for 1 year,and adjusting for baseline age(all P<0.05).Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that baseline age was the only factor influencing the AE value[OK lens group:unstandardized β=-0.024,standardizedβ=-0.266(P=0.022);DIMSA group:unstandardized β=-0.052,standardized β=-0.487(P<0.001)].There was a negative correlation between AE and baseline age(OK lens group:r=-0.30,P<0.001;DIMSA group:r=-0.42,P<0.001).In the DIMSA group,baseline age was positively correlated with SER progression(r=0.28,P=0.001 5).After following up for 1 year,the proportions of children with different AE velocities differed significantly between the two groups(x2=11.09,P=0.004).AE was controlled better in the DIMSA group than that in the OK lens group.AL regression rates in the DIMSA group were significantly higher than those in the OK lens group after 6 months and 1 year of follow-up(all P<0.05).No severe ocular adverse events occurred in either group.Conclusion DIMSA demonstrates superior effi-cacy over OK lenses in controlling myopia progression in children with mild-to-moderate myopia.Ophthalmologists should tailor myopia control strategies based on individual needs and characteristics.
