Abstract
The prevalence of myopia has significantly increased among children and young adults, making it a growing global public health concern. Orthokeratology, vision therapy, and binocular vision training are some of the vision therapies that have been suggested as possible interventions for myopia control. To review the current evidence on the role of vision therapies in controlling myopia progression. A comprehensive literature search was conducted to identify studies evaluating the effectiveness of vision therapies in myopia control. Studies were included if they reported outcomes on myopia progression, refractive error, or axial length. Refractive error can be decreased and the progression of myopia can be controlled with the help of vision therapies, particularly orthokeratology. These treatments may be viewed as supplementary to conventional myopia correction techniques. To completely comprehend the mechanisms and ideal procedures for vision therapy in the control of myopia, more research is required.
