Lenses by night - Clear Sight by Day
Ortho K is a vision therapy that brings a modern approach to a technique known as orthokeratology. Ortho K lenses are manufactured from special highly oxygen permeable material. When worn during the night these lenses apply a controlled shape to the 'window' at the front of the eye (the cornea), eliminating your short sightedness. This effect stays strong enough for you to function the entire day without spectacles or contact lenses.
Ortho K utilises the tried and tested Dreamlite lens design that has been available in Europe since 2002 and currently boasts thousands of happy patients. Ortho K is available to patients with the following degrees of short sightedness.
A spherical prescription of -0.75D up to -4.50D
Astigmatism of up to -1.50D
As well as being an expert in all types of contact lens fitting, your eye care practitioner will have attended an extensive programme of training prior to treating patients with Ortho K in order to be better familiarised with our technique and lens design. Your practitioner will be able to advise you to your suitability for Ortho K.
Wake up to a Clear New Future
Can I really just sleep and see?
Yes, once the effect is complete you simply remove the lenses each morning and can see normally. Also - and this is really clever - you will be able to see clearly with the lenses in when you wake up in the morning (or in the middle of the night). It really is a clear future 24/7!
