Does anyone have experience with children wearing OK(orthokeratology) lens overnight to correct myopia?

My children is 10 and has mild myopia(shortsightness). I am desperate to find ways which will help to slow down the progress of myopia. She tried BATE Method, it didn't work for her. Is OK lens safe to wear for kids overnight? Help

I just saw a news article touting this as a successful way to correct myopia. I may try it myself, but check on the Internet for more info. I don't know much about it but if it works, wouldn't that be great. Jay
