What is Ortho K?
Ortho K stands for Orthokeratology – a non surgical procedure to reshape the cornea. Ortho K is a vision correction therapy that provides clear, comfortable vision, without the need to wear contact lenses or spectacles during the day.
No more restrictions on how long you wear your conventional contact lenses, no more irritation in dry, smoky environments or at the end of a long day.
Ortho K is ideal for low-mid short sighted people who:
- Want clear natural vision all day - every day
- Find soft contact lenses do not fulfil the comfort demands their life-style places on their eyes
- Are involved in recreational and sports activities where periods without wearing contact lenses is ideal
- Have considered refractive surgery because of the freedom it provides, but are worried about the risks
