Ortho-K – Overnight Refractive Treatment

What is Ortho-K and does it mean I'm contact lens and spectacle free through the day?

Orthokeratology is the programmed application of retainer contact lenses that gently change the shape of the cornea, in a controlled way, while asleep! On taking the retainers out when waking, the cornea retains its new programmed treated shape allowing clear vision for the rest of the day, without (this is the clever part) surgery, contact lenses or glasses. Then before going to sleep again at night, they are worn once more. This has many advantages, some of which are:

• Non-surgical vision improvement without glasses or contact lenses

• Easy, safe, and effective in use

• Comfortable, convenient, and reversible

• Suitable for certain careers/sports/activities in which need to be glasses-free or contact lens-free like: swimming, water sports, athletes, pilots, police etc. or when in dusty environments

• Feel free to shower, swim, use sauna as normal

• No end of day contact lens discomfort or blur

• No contact lens dehydration or spectacle misting

It may sound a little amazing, it can be explained another way. Something that most people have heard of and can relate to. That is orthodontic treatment for teeth? Most will know or have heard of this especially regarding teenage children. In orthokeratology, a retainer lens is worn at night during which it adjusts the shape of the cornea. As in orthodontics, you take out the retainer and your vision remains newly adjusted throughout the day. To maintain good day time vision, the ‘vision retainer’ is simply worn at night.

New equipment is helping in the diagnosis and treatment of dry eye. I have recently taken delivery of new equipment for imaging the vital meibomian glands within the eye lid, it is the dysfunction of these glands that is responsible for the vast majority of dry eye and contact lens discomfort.

Also in the same month the mask therapy became part of my optional treatment alternatives, the procedure known as photobiomodulation (PBM) is much friendlier than it looks, giving in-practice treatment to improve the function of the meibomian glands for both dry eye and contact lens discomfort.
