Objective: To observe the effectiveness and safety of long-term wearing of orthokeratology lens in adolescent myopia patients. Methods: From June 2019 to April 2023, 30 myopic adolescents (60 eyes) who had been fitted with orthokeratology lens in the ophthalmology department of Xuanwu hospital and had worn them for a long time (≥ 3 years) were reviewed. They were reexamined 1 day, 7 days, 1 month and 3 month after wearing the glasses. The changes of the axial length and the parameters of corneal endothelioscopy were compared before and after wearing the glasses for 6 months, 1 year, 2 years and 3 years. Result: A total of 30 cases (60 eyes) were observed in this study, including 13 males and 17 females, aged 7-14 years old, with an average age of 9.77 ± 1.89 years old. The equivalent spherical scope was -5.00-0.75D, with an average of -1.98± 0.97 D. Among them, 5 cases (8 eyes, 13.3%) developed grade 1 corneal staining, but no grade 2-3 staining was observed. 2 cases (4 eyes, 6.7%) developed allergic conjunctivitis, which was cured after stopping wearing and receiving corresponding treatment. The axial lengths of 6 mon, 1 a, 2 a, and 3 a before and after wearing glasses were 24.57± 0.74 mm, 24.67± 0.85 mm, 24.78± 0.96 mm, 24.91± 0.97 mm, and 25.06± 0.85 mm, respectively, showing an overall increasing trend (F=21.904, P<0.001). There were statistically significant differences in axial lengths between pre and post wearing glasses at various time points, with P values of 0.027, 0.001, 0.000, and 0.000, respectively. There was a statistically significant difference between 6 mon after wearing glasses and 1 a, 2 a, and 3 a after wearing glasses. The P-values were 0.005, 0.000, and 0.008, respectively. There was a statistically significant difference (P<0.001) between 1 year after wearing the mirror and 2 years after wearing the mirror, while there was no statistically significant difference (P>0.05) between other time points. The coefficient of variation of cell area at 6 mon, 1 a, 2 a, and 3 a before and after wearing glasses were 25± 2.9%, 26± 3.7%, 27± 4.1%, 27± 4.6%, and 27± 4.1%, respectively. Overall, F=5.490, P=0.001. Comparing the two groups, it was found that there was a statistically significant difference between the two groups, with P values of 0.012 and 0.008, respectively (P<0.05). The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P=0. 007), There was no statistically significant difference between other time points (P>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in corneal thickness, endothelial cell density, average area, and hexagonal cell ratio at each time point (P>0.05).Conclusion: Adolescent myopia patients can effectively control the rapid growth of their eye axis by wearing corneal reshaping lenses for a long time. However, comprehensive examination and evaluation must be conducted, qualified and appropriately sized lenses must be worn, standardized operations must be carried out, and follow-up visits must be made on time. If allergies or corneal injuries occur, timely cessation of wearing and corresponding treatment can ensure the safety of long-term wearing. Morphological examination of corneal cells revealed that long-term wearing of glasses showed an increasing trend in the variation of corneal endothelial cell area. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
