INTRODUCTION
Introduction
Myopia Myopia is a condition when the object
light focus was fell in front of the retina.
Also called ”Nearsightness” This refractive disorder might affect all
ages.
The most common type Usually affecting
of refractive anomaly children
Epidemiology
Asia
Myopia occur most in
Global children and
prevalence is adolescent in Asia
estimated at
0.2-3.8%.
- AIMS
To report the management of compound
high myopic astigmatism with
Amblyopia Isoametropic using RGP
Contact lens as one of the options.

PATIEN’S IDENTITY
Age Gender Job Location
11 Years Female Student Outside city
Chief Complain
Difficult to see distant object since she was 5 years old
History of Pressent Illness
The patient complains that she has blurry vision in both eyes, especially
when looking at distant objects. The patients said that blurry vision got
worse approximately 2 months ago, and she is not comfortable with her
current spectacles
There were not any complaints of redness,
photophobia, teary eyes, and eye discharge. There
were also not any report of hazy vision and perceiving
any flying object or light flashes.

Management
• Counselling and Education
• Refractive Correction (with RGP lens)
• Education regarding Contact Lens’ Hygiene
• Evaluate the management after 2-3 months.

Myopia Classification, Based
on its Severity:
Mild myopia( < -3.00 D) Myopia is a condition when the
object light focus was fell in front of
Moderate myopia(-3.00 the retina. This refractive disorder
to -6.00 D), and might affect all ages.
High myopia(> -600 D).
Management of High Myopia
There are several option of high myopia management, it can be
classified into:
•Surgery intervention
•Non-Farmacological
•Farmacological -
Spectacles
Non-farmacological
Contact Lens
Contact Lens RGP SCL
Rigid Gas Permeable
• Able to correct
astigmatism
• Able to control myopia
• Longer adaptation period progressivity
• Lower comfort rate • Higher oxygen transfer
compare to SCL rate higher durability
• Relatively expensive
RGP > SCL

On this patient, the blnking rate 7.59 mm (BC)
was 14x/minute in RE and LE: 7.74 mm – 0.20 mm =
15X/minutes in LE , with 17 7.54 mm (BC)
mm Schirmer test on the RE
and 19 mm in LE
considered normal, there’s no
contraindcation
Management of Amblyopia
Treatment involves the following steps:
1. Eliminate (if needed) any obstruction of the visual axis, such
as a cataract.
2. Correct any significant refractive error.
3. Promote use of the amblyopic eye.

elemination
Patching
Management RGP
CONCLUSION ……
Myopia is the most common refractive anomaly
High myopia without proper management will developed into
patologic myopia.
Refractive correction in Isoametropic amblyopia will improve
success rate
Patient’s age is important factor in management of amblyopia
success rate.
