Orthokeratology, or Ortho-K, is a non-surgical and FDA-approved treatment that gently reshapes the cornea overnight using specially designed gas-permeable contact lenses. You wear them while you sleep and remove them in the morning.
The lenses gently reshape the cornea overnight. This temporary reshaping corrects your vision, so no glasses or daytime contacts are needed during the day.
Ortho-K has been used safely for years and has improved the lives of thousands of patients. Proper hygiene and regular check-ups help minimise risks.
Most patients notice clearer vision after just one night, with full correction usually achieved within a couple of weeks.
No. The effects are temporary. If you stop wearing the lenses, your cornea gradually returns to its original shape.
It is ideal for children and adults, especially athletes, who want to slow the progression of myopia and enjoy clear vision without the constraints of traditional eyewear.
Ortho-K helps manage myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia and astigmatism.
