Summary
Brief summary
This study aims to determine whether hyperopic orthokeratology lenses can be used to provide effective mono-vision type correction for near vision in presbyopic adults. The effect of overnight hyperopic orthokeratology lens wear on refraction, ocular aberrations and corneal shape will also be investigated.
