Ortho-k is a safe, reversible, gentle and non-surgical FDA approved treatment option for children and adults who are suffering from moderate short-sightedness or myopia and mild astigmatism.
Ortho-K are specially designed custom-made Gas Permeable contact lenses worn during sleep to reshape the cornea or front surface of the eye.
Its main purpose is to restore clear vision, control the progression of myopia and to eliminate and reduce the need for glasses or day time contacts.
