Multipurpose solutions (MPS) are the most commonly prescribed regimen to clean, disinfect and rinse rigid lenses. The preservatives used in MPS may cause hypersensitivity and the presence of quaternary ammonium compounds (QAC) may increase development of antiseptic resistance mediated by QAC resistance genes, thus lowering the efficacy of disinfection. Povidone-iodine (PVI) has been safely used as a disinfectant for ophthalmic operations and eye drops. The cleadew GP (Ophtecs, Japan) tested in the current study is a PVI based rigid lens disinfecting solutions which does not employ QAC. If its efficacy and safety can be confirmed in this study, it will be a good alternative rigid lens care regimen for children.

Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | Change in subjective symptoms before and 6 months after lens wear | Questionnaire of ocular comfort will be administered to rate symptoms of discomfort, itching, tearing, dryness and redness | 6 months | |
Primary | Change in corneal staining and injection before and 6 months after ortho-k lens wear | Grading of corneal staining, limbal injection and conjunctival injection under slitlamp biomicroscopy before and after ortho-k lens wear | 6 months | |
Secondary | Change in levels of ocular microbiome before and 6 months after ortho-k lens wear | Sample from the lower conjunctiva will be gently taken with cotton swab pre-wet with normal saline before and ortho-k lens wear | 6 months | |
