Dr. Aller reasoned that if bifocal glasses were effective in controlling myopia, bifocal contacts might be effective as well. What he found in a seven-year study of 100 patients was that if he prescribed bifocal soft lenses for the appropriate nearsighted person, adult or child, that their rate of myopia worsening was reduced on average by 90%. Inspired by this finding, Dr. Aller sought and received a clinical research grant to fund further research. How are these findings relevant to bifocal soft contact lenses and myopia progression?
Two independent studies have shown that corneal reshaping contact lenses slow the growth of the eye in myopic children. These contact lenses provide clear central vision, but light is focused anterior to the retina peripheral to the macula. Currently, the most recognized theory regarding the myopia control effect of corneal reshaping contact lenses is myopic peripheral optical blur.
