To explore how cloud-based platforms are transforming clinical practice in orthokeratology (ortho-k) through data-driven decision support and enhanced efficiency.
Key Findings:
AI-assisted prescription systems significantly reduce the number of trial lenses required.
Cloud-based platforms support consistent outcomes and lower barriers for novice practitioners.
Predictive models can estimate the risk of lens decentration, aiding in targeted clinical management.
Interpretation:
Intelligent cloud-based platforms enhance the ortho-k fitting process by improving accuracy, efficiency, and safety while supporting clinical judgment.
Limitations:
There is a learning curve associated with new technologies.
Clinicians must avoid over-reliance on automated recommendations, especially in pediatric cases.
Conclusion:
Cloud-based platforms refine the art of ortho-k by supporting accurate fits and safe clinical practices, contributing to predictable and patient-centered care.
