ORTHOKERATOLOGY
Orthokeratology is a non-surgical process that reshapes the cornea by wearing rigid contact lenses while you sleep. When you wake up you can see clearly without glasses or the hassle of wearing contact lenses during the day. Unlike laser surgery, the therapy is non-invasive and reversible when treatment is ceased.
Orthokeratology enables active people to go about their daily work, recreation, and sports without any interference from glasses or contact lenses and without the significant costs of invasive surgical correction.
Another remarkable aspect of orthokeratology is the evidence emerging that it can dramatically slow the progression of short-sightedness in young eyes. Orthokeratology has been shown to be a viable option for correcting vision as well as slowing the development of myopia in the future. Many clinical studies, follow-up studies and retrospective reviews of cases have demonstrated the benefits of orthokeratology.
