Orthokeratology (Ortho-K) is a specialty, rigid contact lens worn overnight that temporarily reshapes the cornea, allowing clear vision during the day without glasses or contact lens wear. This allows for clear vision throughout the day without the use of any glasses or contact lenses. It is a great, non-surgical option for myopia correction and considered a good alternative to LASIK. This is great for those who do not want LASIK/refractive surgery, cannot tolerate soft contact lens wear due to dryness and great for swimmers needing correction.

It is also FDA approved for myopia control treatment and has proven to provide a 50% myopia control effect, causing it to slow myopia progression by around half.
