Have you heard about Ortho-K lenses? Ortho-K lenses are specialized overnight contact lenses that gently reshape a child's cornea while they sleep, providing clear vision throughout the day without glasses or daytime contacts.
Benefits of Ortho-K for kids:
*Daytime vision correction: Provides clear, glasses-free vision during the day, which is ideal for activities like sports, school, and swimming.
*Myopia control: Studies show that Ortho-K can help slow the progression of nearsightedness in children, which can help lower the risk of eye-related issues in adulthood.
*Increased safety: They are considered one of the safest forms of contact lens wear for teenagers because they are not worn during the day, and they avoid the potential risks of laser surgery.
*Convenience: Eliminates the need for children to wear glasses or soft contact lenses during the day, reducing the risk of them being lost or broken.
