Orthokeratology, also known as Ortho-K, is a gentle, reversible, non-surgical solution that uses specially custom designed contact lenses that reduce the effect of myopia with continuous overnight wear. Similar to a custom dental retainer from an orthodontist, worn overnight to correct the alignment of teeth,
Orthokeratology lenses are made specifically for your child’s unique eyes, and they work comfortably to gently reshape the cornea to correct vision while they sleep.
Once these overnight corneal reshaping lenses are removed in the morning, your child’s corneas naturally maintain their shape, so your child has clear vision all day, without the need for daytime corrective lenses or glasses. To maintain the effect of myopia reduction, overnight lens wear must be continued as prescribed.
Dr. Sweitzer has obtained certification to fit the Euclid Emerald contact lens.
