Wearing plastic keratoscopes is a method of refractive correction, but the effect of this reduction in myopia is limited, and is generally used for those with myopia of -6.00D or less. The effectiveness of the treatment is also related to many factors such as the wearer’s own corneal characteristics, the degree of myopia, and the wearer’s compliance. The benefits of wearing keratoplasty lenses include: wearing them only at night, delaying the development of myopia, and significant shaping effect.
⒈ only wear at night: keratoplasty lenses only need to be worn at night when you sleep, and do not need to wear frames and corneal contact lenses during the day.
⒈ slow down the development of myopia: keratoplasty can slow down the development of myopia in patients, so that myopia increases slowly. Currently, large samples of data show that patients wearing keratoplasty lenses can slow down the growth of myopia by 50% to 70%.
Significant effect of plasticizing:The effect of plasticizing corneal lenses is significant and reversible, generally speaking, the plasticizing can keep the effect of plasticizing for 1~2 days.
Patients should cut their fingernails short and round them before removing and wearing plastic keratoscopes, and they need to wash their hands with soap and water to prevent infection with bacteria. During the wearing period, if the patient’s eyes become infected, eye pain and other abnormalities, he/she should seek medical attention for treatment.
