Ortho-K
Your Journey To Better Life
How Does Ortho-K Work?
Ortho-K lenses correct your vision while you sleep. Simply pop your ortho-K lenses in before bedtime, remove them in the morning, and wake up to world of clear, sharp, natural vision.
Ortho-K allows people suffering from myopia, or short-sightedness, to enjoy a life without lenses or specs during the day – it is safe and effective and has already transformed the lives of thousands of people.
What is Ortho-K?
While you sleep, the specially designed contact lenses gently and gradually re-shape the front of the eye. Thus, allowing a non-surgical, reversible procedure to correct your vision.
The lenses are surprisingly comfortable to wear and most people comment that they forget they have lenses in the eyes after the first night of sleeping with them in.
Improvements in vision can usually be seen the next day with the procedure stabilising after a week.
Am I Suitable?
The treatment is only suitable for customers who have less than -3.50 of short sightedness and before anybody can go ahead with the procedure a full assessment has to be carried out.
A digital map of the front of the eye is required as well ensuring that the eye is free of any disease. Once the consultation is carried out, contact lenses are ordered from our laboratory and an appointment will be made for the patient to try the lenses and be shown how to insert and remove them. Lenses need to be removed and stored in cleaning solution every morning. Your first lenses will be supplied with a 3month’s supply of solutions and all solutions are solutions thereafter are free of charge when on monthly replacement plan.
One pair of lenses will last 1 year and are automatically replaced at the end of this period.
