Abstract

Purpose: To develop and interpret a clinical prediction model for identifying children at risk of poor 5-year axial length (AL) control following orthokeratology (Ortho-K) lens wear, integrating traditional regression modeling with explainable machine learning. Methods: A total of 504 children with baseline myopia were included. The 5-year AL control outcome was defined as an AL increase of
