Orthokeratology(Ortho-K)
When a prescription gets stronger every year, it means the eye is physically stretching and growing longer. Ortho-K sends a "stop" signal, telling the eye to slow its growth. This is vital because slowing down myopia now significantly lowers their risk of serious eye conditions, such as retinal detachment, maculopathy or glaucoma, in adulthood.
Why Choose Ortho-K?
Effective Myopia Control:
Highly effective at slowing down short-sightedness and keeping eye growth at a healthy level.
Daytime Freedom:
Kids can run, swim, and play sports completely free from glasses or daytime contacts.
Non-Surgical and Reversible:
It provides LASIK-like results without any surgery and it’s 100% reversible upon cessation.
The "Night-time" Magic
Think of Ortho-K like plugging in a mobile phone. Your child wears these custom-fitted, highly breathable lenses only while they sleep. The lenses gently reshape the eye overnight, meaning your child wakes up to clear, glasses-free vision throughout the day.
It’s ideal for kids who:
Love playing sports or swimming.
Find glasses distracting or uncomfortable.
Lose or break their frames frequently.
Is Your Child a Candidate for Ortho-K?
While every eye is unique, Ortho-K is a fantastic option for many children. Use this checklist to see if your child is ready for the "night-time lens" experience.
1. The Vision Check
Does your child need stronger glasses every 6–12 months?
Does your child have mild to moderate short-sightedness?
2. Lifestyle
Is your child active in sports e.g. swimming or football where glasses can get in the way?
Does your child have a steady sleeping schedule?
3. Parental Support
Are you able to supervise your child’s daily regimen, ensuring the lenses are inserted, removed, and cleaned properly?
