The Orthokeratolgy Company GOV & VIPOK Updates
The Ideal Ortho-K Patient Suitable candidates for Ortho-K • Age of Patient – older than 6 years • Spherical refractive power +5D to -10.00D • Cylindrical refractive power: • -1.50D or less W-T-Rule astigmatism • -0.75D or less A-T-Rule astigmatism • Children with progressive myopia • Patients free of corneal pathology • Patients that are committed to initial and ongoing cost of treatment
Screen for a healthy cornea • Don’t fit when: • Cornea is distorted • Eye Rubbing (treat allergies & habit) • Soft or RGP imprints (allow rehabilitation) • Corneal abnormalities • Irregular corneal astigmatism • Keratoconus • Pellucid Marginal Degeneration • Lid or corneal pathology is present
Topographer Calibrate Topographer!
Topographer • Accuracy depends on: • Software algorithms used to reconstruct corneal shape (update software) • Stability of the patient’s tear film during capture (use wetting drops) • Head position & movement during capture • Lid aperture (open eyes) • Number of reading done to get statistically significant accuracy • Take multiple readings • Omit high & low values
Cylinder Rules • <1.50D W-T-R • <0.75D A-T-R • Cyl ≤ ½Sph • -0.50 / -1.50 – Problem • -3.00/-1.00 – Fine
Empirical Fitting Systems • Corneal information is given to lab • Lab designs lens • Lens works • Or it doesn’t!
Systemised Fitting Systems General fitting process: • Initial lens is chosen from chart • Fit with diagnostic trial lenses and evaluate NaFL pattern – Look for Bull’s eye pattern • Initial lens should not be too flat and should move 1 – 2mm on blink • Evaluate after 30 min using the topographer • Does the Px show a central flattening effect ?
Systemised Fitting Systems General fitting process • If diagnostic lens looks acceptable, allow Px to wear overnight and evaluate the next morning • If the lens is too tight or too loose a different lens can be chosen from trial set and refitted
Systemised Fitting Systems Lens adaptation and follow-up • Centration is critical. • Movement: 1 – 2 mm with blinking. • Flourescein pattern: Bulls eye pattern.

The GOV System • Advanced inventory system • Multi-curve aspheric conformed Reverse Geometry Lenses • Simple method for myopia & hyperopia correction • You are in control of the lens fit – not laboratories • Correct from +5.00D to -10.00D GOAL A simple method to start Orthokeratology allowing for growth into fitting higher powers with the confidence that there is a support group.
Benifits Simple effective system • You choose the appropriate lens and make changes • Immediate dispensing – (full trial set) • Efficient and effective method to increase turnover • Develop a specialty Ortho-k practice • Confidently fit with GOV support
GOVTMlens details • Base curve • Hydraulic massage to central cornea • Conformed fitting curve (1st reverse zone) • Space for tear circulation & tissue molding • Alignment curve (2nd reverse) • Peripheral compression & centration • Peripheral curve • Tear reservoir for cornea wetting
Predetermined OAD (lens size) • OADs of trial lenses are predetermined • Flatter Ks accompany larger corneas • Steeper Ks accompany smaller corneas
Fitting GOVTM Lenses • External ocular exam • Measure refraction, keratometry & HVID • Select K-code by Mean K • Select Power-code by S.E. • Order lenses Empirically and/or with trial fit K-code / Power-code / Color / Material / OAD • Lens size • Predetermined • Match Corneal size by Best-fit HVID
Orthokeratology The GOV System K-code: Mean K = (Steep K + Flat K) / 2 • Carry value up to 2 decimal places (0.01) • Km in Diopters Power Calculation: SE = Spherical Spec power – [K astigmatism / 2] • Spherical power must not be vertexed • K astigmatism = steep K – flat K (in Dioptres)

Trouble Shooting Bull’s Eye Pattern
Trouble Shooting Alignment Fit
Steep Fit No Compression
Flatten alignment curve • Up the column
Steep Fit 4 Steps
Steep Fit Steep fit – 6 Steps
Trouble Shooting Central Islands
Steep Fit No Compression
Central Island Small areas of distortion along or near the visual axis
Central Island Cause: • Alignment curve too tight • Excessive uncorrected astigmatism resulting in unequal forces on the cornea Solution: • Decrease sagittal depth of lens by flattening alignment curve • move up the column • Decentered lens must be centered • Flatten the BC if caused by uncorrected astigmatism • move one column right.
