What is Ortho-K
Correct your vision while you sleep!
The lenses are surprisingly comfortable to wear and most people comment that they forget they have lenses in the eyes after the first night of sleeping with them in.
Improvements in vision can usually be seen the next day with the procedure stabilising after a week.

Am I suitable?
A digital map of the front of the eye is required as well ensuring that the eye is free of any disease. Once the consultation is carried out, contact lenses are ordered from our laboratory and an appointment will be made for the patient to try the lenses and be shown how to insert and remove them. Lenses need to be removed and stored in cleaning solution every morning. Your first lenses will be supplied with a 3month’s supply of solutions and all solutions are solutions thereafter are free of charge when on monthly replacement plan.
One pair of lenses will last 1 year and are automatically replaced at the end of this period.
