Brief summary

This is a prospective, multi-centre, single-arm clinical trial to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of MCOK-01 lenses in patients with myopia and myopic astigmatism who need dioptric correction. A maximum number of 220 participants are planned to be enrolled , with a minimum of 150 planned to complete the trial (30% dropout). All participants will be enrolled in Australia. Enrolled participants will wear the lenses every night for up to 12 months, removing them upon waking. 8 follow up visits will be completed during treatment, after: 1 day, 1 week, 2 weeks, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months and 12 months of wearing the lenses.

Interventions

DEVICEMCOK-01

The investigational device is a Rigid Gas Permeable contact lenses for orthokeratology. MCOK-01 applied the reverse geometry design and adopted the lens material which possesses the highest oxygen permeability among all the materials for orthokeratology lens.

Each line difference represents 0.1 logMAR acuity. The improvement in acuity is represented by a numerical reduction in the logMAR value.
