Unfortunately no. Since it works by reshaping your cornea, stopping lens wear would just mean cornea returning back to its original shape, thus you may still experience blur vision when you dont wear the lenses.

Ortho-K is a safe form of vision correction when prescribed by a trained practitioner and worn by an individual with due care. Although Ortho-K lenses are rigid, they are made of breathable, oxygen-permeable materials specifically designed for nighttime wear.

The risk in wearing Ortho-K lenses is comparable to that of any contact lens. However, the best part about corneal reshaping therapy is that it is safe, non-surgical, non-invasive and reversible. Additionally, no serious adverse events were reported in FDA clinical trials.

Anyone who wants the freedom of clear vision without having to wear glasses or contact lenses during the day. People with an active lifestyle, fitness fanatics and avid swimmers. Adults who are considering laser vision correction but whose vision is not yet stable enough for surgery, or who shy away from the risks of permanent laser surgery. Children are especially good candidates for Ortho-K lenses - they can see clearly at school and in all their sports and activities without the risk of breaking or losing their glasses or daytime contact lenses. At the same time, it's a great treatment option for kids with progressive myopia.

No, it is a treatment option open to both kids and adults :)

There is no age restriction for Ortho-K lenses. It depends on your child and your optometrist's recommendation.

Children benefit most from Ortho-K treatment if they start at a young age. Parents can help with the lenses too. Contact lens insertion and removal is done at bedtime and upon waking.

During the first few nights when your eyes are getting used to the lenses, you may experience a slight irritation and itch after inserting the lenses. This is normal and nothing to worry about. The sensation is mainly from your eyelid moving over the lens when you blink. When you go to bed and close your eyes, you will not feel anything and the lenses will not affect your sleep.

Yes, you can see while you are wearing your lenses.

Pricing differs according to you or your child’s degree and cornea shape.

Definitely. Ortho-K vision treatment is temporary and completely reversible. Your cornea shape will naturally return to their original shape if you stop wearing Ortho-K lenses for a few weeks. If you decide to have permanent vision correction at a later date, this will not affect the laser surgery.

Ortho-k is a flexible form of myopia treatment. If your child forgets to wear contact lenses or skips a night, most of the vision correction he or she has is retained. The more nights spent without contact lenses, the blurrier the vision becomes until it is completely uncorrected again. Many children can skip a night without significantly worsening their visual acuity.
