Ortho-K Lenses in Memphis, TN
WHAT IS ORTHOKERATOLOGY?
It’s a non-surgical method that lets you see without glasses or daytime contact lenses. We’re able to improve your vision by gently reshaping your eyes WHILE YOU SLEEP. In 3 years, it is expected that 50% of the world’s population will be nearsighted. Children over the age of 8 are especially at risk.
How does it work?
1. Get fitted for Ortho-K Lenses
Put the custom-fitted contact lenses in at bedtime.
2. Go to sleep
Sounds easy enough. But, while you are asleep the Ortho-K lenses are hard at work safely reshaping your cornea as you sleep.
3. Wake up with clear vision
Wake up with clear, sharp, natural vision during your day.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE?
The process can takes 1-4 weeks to achieve excellent vision but, some people take as little as one day. The speed depends on your starting prescription.
If needed, we’ll give you temporary soft contact lenses to wear during the day so you can see clearly.
Ortho-K has been FDA approved for over 14 years and it is a very safe and reversible procedure.
