16 Apr Life Changing Clear Vision with Ortho-K Contact Lenses
Are you tired of wearing glasses or contact lenses every day? Have you ever considered a more permanent solution to your vision problems? If so, then you may want to learn more about ortho-k contact lenses.
Ortho-k contact lenses are a type of contact lens that is worn at night to gently reshape the cornea of the eye. This reshaping allows for clear vision during the day, without the need for glasses or contact lenses. They are a great option for people who want to be free from the hassle of glasses and contact lenses. They are also a good option for people who are not good candidates for LASIK surgery.
How Ortho-K Contact Lenses Work
The lenses are made of a rigid gas permeable material that is slightly larger than the cornea. When the lenses are worn at night, they gently press against the cornea, reshaping it. This reshaping causes the light to focus more clearly on the retina, which improves vision.
The Benefits of Ortho-K Contact Lenses
There are many benefits to wearing them, including:
- Improved vision: They can improve vision by up to 20/20.
- No need for glasses or contact lenses during the day: This can be a major convenience for many people.
- Safe and effective: They have been used for many years and are a safe and effective way to improve vision.
- Reversible: If you decide that you no longer want to wear ortho-k contact lenses, you can simply stop wearing them and your vision will return to its previous state.
Are Ortho-K Contact Lenses Right for You?
They are not for everyone. However, they may be a good option for you if you:
- Are between the ages of 8 and 40
- Have mild to moderate myopia (nearsightedness)
- Are not good candidates for LASIK surgery
- Are willing to wear the lenses at night
If you are considering ortho-k contact lenses, it is important to see an eye doctor for a consultation. Your eye doctor will be able to determine if you are a good candidate for using them and help you choose the right lenses for you.
