Introdução – A miopia é um erro refrativo cujos raios paralelos provenientes do infinito focam antes do plano da retina. Globalmente a prevalência da miopia está a aumentar, sendo a sua progressão controlada através de diversos métodos, nomeadamente lentes de desfocagem periférica, como é o exemplo das lentes de contacto MiSight® 1 day. Objetivos – Avaliar a progressão da miopia em crianças que usaram lentes de contacto MiSight® 1 day. Métodos – Foi implementado um estudo observacional descritivo, retrospetivo e do tipo série de casos. Os dados foram recolhidos após consulta de registo clínico num estabelecimento comercial de ótica, local onde as lentes de contacto foram adaptadas. Foram incluídas crianças com miopia que iniciaram o tratamento com as lentes de contacto MiSight® 1 day para controlo da progressão da miopia. A eficácia do tratamento foi avaliada através da medição do erro refrativo (equivalente esférico) antes, durante e após o início do tratamento. Resultados – Foram incluídas cinco crianças, duas do género masculino e três do feminino, com idades entre os sete e quinze anos. A duração do tratamento variou entre 19 e 61 meses. A progressão da miopia durante o tratamento variou entre 0.00 e -1.75 D. Discussão – Todas as crianças que integraram o estudo demonstraram uma diminuição da progressão da miopia quando comparada com a progressão da miopia antes do tratamento (0.00 e -2.25 D), bem como com a progressão que seria expectável sem tratamento (-1.10 e -2.75 D). Conclusões – O uso da lente de contacto MiSight® 1 day proporcionou um maior controlo na progressão da miopia quando comparado com a progressão que seria expectável sem a utilização da mesma.
ABSTRACT - Introduction – Myopia is a refractive error where parallel rays coming from infinity focus before the retinal plane. Globally the prevalence of myopia has increased, and its progression can be controlled by various methods, including peripheral defocusing lenses, such as the MiSight® 1-day contact lenses. Objectives – Evaluate the progression of myopia in children who wore MiSight® 1-day contact lenses. Methods – This was an observational, descriptive, retrospective, and case series study. Data was collected from clinical registries in an Optician’s office, where the contact lenses were fitted. Children with myopia who started treatment with MiSight® 1 day contact lenses to control myopia progression were included. Treatment efficacy was assessed by measuring refractive error (spherical equivalent) before, during, and after initiation of treatment. Results – Five children were included, two males and three females, aged between seven and fifteen years. The duration of treatment ranged from 19 to 61 months. Myopia progression during treatment ranged from 0.00 to -1.75 D. Discussion – All children in the study showed a decrease in myopia progression compared to myopia progression before treatment (0.00 and -2.25 D), as well as to what would be expected without treatment (-1.10 and -2.75 D). Conclusions – The use of MiSight® 1-day provided greater control over the progression of myopia when compared to the progression that would be expected without its use.
