Key Points

This research aims to investigate the short-term effects of orthokeratology treatment zone decentration on choroidal thickness and vasculature.
Conducted an observational study over a 1-month period
Measured choroidal thickness before and after orthokeratology treatment
Assessed changes in vasculature during the treatment phase
Choroidal thickening was observed after 1 month of orthokeratology treatment
Treatment zone decentration correlated with alterations in choroidal characteristics

Implication

Observational study evaluates choroidal changes during orthokeratology, suggesting implications for myopia control.

Abstract

Orthokeratology treatment zone decentration is associated with choroidal thickening during 1-month orthokeratology treatment. This early change may provide a new perspective for evaluating its potential role in long-term myopia control.
