At Eyes & Vision, we understand the importance of clear, comfortable vision. That’s why we’re excited to introduce Ortho-K lenses, a revolutionary solution for vision correction that transforms the way you see, all while you sleep.
What are Ortho-K Lenses?
Orthokeratology, commonly known as Ortho-K, involves the use of specially designed contact lenses to reshape the cornea while you sleep. These lenses are crafted from highly breathable materials and are custom-fitted for each individual’s unique eye shape. The goal of Ortho-K is to correct refractive errors, such as myopia (nearsightedness), so that you can enjoy clear, unaided vision during the day.
How Do Ortho-K Lenses Work?
When worn overnight, Ortho-K lenses gently reshape the cornea, the transparent front part of the eye. By exerting precise pressure, these lenses temporarily alter the cornea’s curvature, compensating for refractive errors. The result is improved vision without the need for glasses or daytime contact lenses.
Benefits of Ortho-K
- Daytime Freedom: Wake up to clear vision without the hassle of glasses or daytime contact lenses. Ortho-K provides the freedom to see clearly throughout the day without any visual aids.
- Myopia Control: Ortho-K has shown promise in slowing the progression of myopia in children and teenagers. By addressing refractive errors early on, these lenses contribute to better eye health in the long run.
- Comfort and Convenience: Experience the comfort of contact lenses without the need to wear them during waking hours. Ortho-K lenses are worn while you sleep, offering convenience and ease of use.
- Suitable for Various Ages: Whether you’re a teenager or an adult seeking an alternative to traditional vision correction methods, Ortho-K lenses may be a suitable option for a wide range of ages.
What to Expect
- Our experienced optometrists will conduct a comprehensive eye examination to determine your suitability for Ortho-K lenses.
- If Ortho-K is the right choice for you, we’ll provide custom-fitted lenses tailored to your eye’s unique shape and prescription.
- As with any vision correction method, there may be an adaptation period. Most individuals find that their vision improves progressively during the first few weeks of wearing Ortho-K lenses.
- We’ll schedule regular follow-up appointments to monitor your progress and ensure the lenses continue to meet your vision correction needs.
