Abstract
The increasing incidence of myopia across the globe [1], and in East Asia in particular [2, 3, 4, 5], has caused great interest in the optometric community, not least because of the emergence of treatment options such as soft dual-focus design contact lenses [6,7], orthokeratology contact lenses [8, 9, 10, 11] and pharmaceutical agents [12].
