Introduction: The investigation of myopia and soft contact lenses is not new. Many reports show  that  the  wearing  of  silicone  hydrogel lenses as opposed to conventional disposable hydrogel lenses results in little progression of myopia in the eyes wearing silicone hydrogels. Method: Six subjects wore a silicone hydro-gel lens on one eye while the other eye wore a habitual disposable hydrogel lens for six months of daily wear. Fifty measurements of refractive state in each eye were taken prior to the subjects wearing a silicone lens in one eye and a conven-tional hydrogel lens in the other eye. After six months of daily wear another fifty measurements of refractive state were taken for each subject. Results:  Although  there  is  no  statisti-cal  support  for  the  findings  of  this  study, comet stereo-pairs are used to show the chang-es in refractive state for each subject. Four of  the  six  subjects  showed  an  increase  in myopia in the eye wearing the silicone lens. Discussion:  The  increase  in  myopia in eyes wearing a silicone hydrogel lens is contrary  to  the  findings  of  other  studies.

The goal of this retrospective case series is to demonstrate the effectivity of combination low-dose atropine therapy with peripheral defocus, double concentric circle design with a center distance soft contact lenses at controlling myopia progression over 1 year of treatment. Included in this series are 3 female children aged 8–10 years with progressing myopia averaging −4.37 ± 0.88 D at the beginning of treatment. Their average annual myopic progression during the 3 years prior to therapy was 1.12 ± 0.75 D. They had not attempted any myopia control treatments prior to this therapy. The children were treated with a combination of 0.01% atropine therapy with spherical peripheral defocus daily replacement soft lenses MiSight<sup>®</sup> 1 day (Cooper Vision, Phoenix, AZ, USA). They underwent cycloplegic refraction, and a slit-lamp evaluation every 6 months which confirmed no adverse reactions or staining was present. Each of the 3 children exhibited an average of 0.25 ± 0.25 D of myopia progression at the end of 1 year of treatment. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the first published study exhibiting that combining low-dose atropine and peripheral defocus soft contact lenses is effective at controlling children’s moderate to severe myopia progression during 1 year of therapy.
