Abstract:
Purpose: The prevalence of myopia is high and increasing. Several interventions have been attempted to control myopic progression. the aim of this study is to synthesize evidence provided by systematic reviews and metaanalyses on myopia control. Methods: We performed a literature review using PubMed and Medline databases since 2011 to 2018. Studies involving myopia epidemiology and control of myopia progression were selected; only studies published in English were reviewed.Results: Low dose Atropine eye drops and Orthokeratology are highly effective for controlling myopia progression. Bifocal or progressive addition spectacles and contact lenses, peripheral defocus contact lenses and daily outdoor light exposure are also effective. however, myopia undercorrection is ineffective. Conclusion: Although there are various recommended methods in order to prevent myopia progression, longterm studies are required on each modality
