Ortho-K or “OK Lens” is a revolutionary non-surgical process that improves your vision and eliminates the need for glasses or daytime contact lenses. It works by gently reshaping the front surface of the eye (cornea) by wearing a specially designed high oxygen rigid gas permeable (RGP) lens while you sleep. You will have clear, sharp and natural vision during waking hours. Ortho-K Key Bene?ts Non-surgical alternative to refractive surgeries that o?ers excellent visual results Waking up with clear and sharp vision

Proven to be very safe and e?ective by the FDA Perfect for children and adults who are active and involved in sports Great for contact lens wearers who su?er from dry eyes or allergies Slows down the progression of nearsightedness Less costly compared to refractive surgeries Easily reversible if desired Treatment Program

  3. Step 1 Step 2 Initial comprehensive eye exam and consultation to determine whether you are an appropriate candidate. Our doctor will insert trial lenses into your eyes to determine the optimal ?t. Once the perfect ?t is obtained, OK lenses will be custom designed based on the natural shape of your eyes, obtained and mapped using our corneal topographer. Step 3 Step 4 Instructions will be given on insertion and removal of the lenses, as well as proper handling and cleaning. Schedule follow-up visits to ensure the lenses have achieved the intended ?tting e?ect, also to assess the health of the eyes to con?rm there is no adverse reaction to lens wear.

  4. FAQ How long does it take? K Optimal vision can be achieved within one to four weeks. However, it is very common for some to reach excellent vision in the next day or two. Duration of the treatment depends on the severity of the initial prescription. While the cornea is being reshaped during the ?rst few days, it may be necessary for some to be ?tted with a temporary soft contact until optimal treatment result is achieved.
