Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Intervention: standard orthokeratology rigid contact lenses with 10.5 mm total lens diameter
Materials: Lenses will be made from paragon HDS 100 material with high oxygen permeability (100 Dk units ISO/Fatt). This is a material that is commonly used for conventional orthokeratology lens designs.
Exposure: 2 weeks of overnight lens wear during sleep (for minimum 7-8 hours) with no day time lens wear. Following this 2 week lens wear period, this trial will involve a minimum 2 week wash out period of no lens wear after which the comparator orthokeratology lenses will be worn for another 2 weeks.
Delivery and location: The research team will initially insert the lens on the research participants's eye at the School of Optometry and Vision Science, UNSW, Sydney. Lenses will be provided individually and once at the beginning of the trial.
Supporting procedures: Research participants will then be taught one-on-one face-to-face how to insert, remove clean and maintain orthokeratology lenses so that they can safely wear the contact lenses during the trial period
Intervention code [1] 300838 0
Treatment: Devices
Comparator / control treatment
Intervention: comparator orthokeratology rigid contact lenses with either 10.0 mm or 11.0 mm total lens diameter. Research participants with horizontal visible iris diameter 11.5 mm will be given lenses with 11.0 mm total lens diameter. Those with horizontal visible iris diameter of less than 11.5 mm will be given lenses with 10.0 mm total lens diameter.
Materials: Lenses will be made from paragon HDS 100 material with high oxygen permeability (100 Dk units ISO/Fatt). This is a material that is commonly used for conventional orthokeratology lens designs.
Exposure: After 2 weeks of overnight lens wear during sleep of the standard orthokeratology lens, research participants will undergo a minimum 2 week wash out period of no lens wear. Following this wash out period, research participants will be given the comparator orthokeratology lenses will be worn for another 2 weeks during sleep (for minimum 7-8 hours) with no day time lens wear.
Delivery and location: The research team will initially insert the lens on the Research participants's eye at the School of Optometry and Vision Science, UNSW, Sydney. Lenses will be provided individually and once at the beginning of the trial.
Supporting procedures: Research participants will then be taught one-on-one face-to-face how to insert, remove clean and maintain orthokeratology lenses so that they can safely wear the contact lenses during the trial period
