Safe Alternative to LASIK
Safe Lasik Alternative
Ortho-K, more formally known as Orthokeratology, is an extremely safe alternative to LASIK, and has been successfully practiced around the world to successfully treat astigmatism and myopia. With the non-surgical Ortho-K procedure, you will be able to enjoy your entire day without the use of your glasses or contact lenses.
Ortho-K is a process that flattens and reshapes the cornea using special custom-fit contact lenses that are designed to be in place while you sleep. Because the treatment is through wearing the special contact lenses while sleeping, the results are completely reversible by simply opting not to use the contact lenses. Ortho-K is safer than any currently offered traditional surgical vision correction. The Ortho-K treatment is super simple, since it occurs while you are sleeping.
