Would your children like to leave their glasses at home and still be able to see clearly? Orthokeratology (ortho-k) makes that possible. Children wear special contact lenses to sleep and wake up with excellent vision the next day. It gently corrects myopia (the elongation of the eye) and nearsightedness.
Ortho-k therapy can address a child’s myopia (nearsightedness) without surgery. Inserted at night and removed in the morning, ortho-k contact lenses can slow myopia’s progression at a time when an unprecedented number of children are being diagnosed with the condition.
