Ortho-K: A Non-Surgical Solution for Clear Vision 

Imagine waking up every morning with crisp, clear vision without needing glasses or daytime contact lenses. Orthokeratology (ortho-k) makes this possible by using specialized contact lenses to reshape the cornea while you sleep. 

Our Conroe eye clinic offers ortho-k for children and adults, helping slow myopia progression in kids while giving adults a glasses-free alternative to LASIK. If you're looking for a reversible, effective way to correct vision without surgery, ortho-k could be the perfect solution.

How Does Ortho-K Work? 

Orthokeratology is a non-invasive vision correction treatment that involves wearing custom-designed gas-permeable contact lenses overnight. These lenses gently reshape the cornea (the front surface of your eye) while you sleep, temporarily correcting refractive errors. 

What Happens When You Wear Ortho-K Lenses? 

  1. Nighttime Treatment: The lenses apply gentle, controlled pressure to reshape the cornea. 
  2. Morning Removal: When you wake up, you remove the lenses and experience clear vision all day. 
  3. Temporary & Reversible: If you stop wearing ortho-k lenses, your cornea gradually returns to its original shape.

  • Slows myopia progression, reducing the need for stronger prescriptions each year.
