ORTHO-K: Have your child experience the freedom of clear vision without daytime glasses or contact lenses through orthokeratology (Ortho-k), by them wearing custom-designed contact lenses overnight! Ortho-k gently reshapes the cornea, allowing your child to see clearly throughout the day without the need for glasses or contact lenses. This non-surgical, reversible process is particularly beneficial for active children and has also been shown to SLOW DOWN the progression of myopia in children. Ortho-k can correct various eye problems, including myopia (short-sightedness) hyperopia (long-sightedness) & astigmatism (elongated-shaped eye). While initial adaptation may take up to a week, with proper lens care and regular follow-up, ortho-k is a safe and effective vision correction method. Learn more about how Ortho-k can transform your child’s vision and daily life experiences at MyKidsVision.Org. Follow the link below for more information!
