What is Ortho-K?

Ortho-K is a special treatment to help patients see clearly even when they are not wearing a prescription lens. Instead, a special gas permeable contact lens is placed into the eye each night before bed and the lens gently pushes the eye into the proper shape while you sleep. In the morning, you can remove the lenses and still see clearly throughout the day. Some patients can even see clearly for up to three days after wearing them for just one night!

Can Adults Also Wear Them?

Adults can also benefit from the freedom of ACUVUE® Abiliti® Overnight Therapeutic Lenses for their myopia. An eye doctor who prescribes ACUVUE® Abiliti® Overnight Therapeutic Lenses can evaluate if they are right for you.

Who Should Consider Ortho-K?

Slows down myopia progression

Dirt or other debris that gets under contact lenses

Dry eye that is made worse by wearing prescription lenses

You play sports and do not want to worry about glasses or contacts

The ability to wake up in the morning and see clearly

A general dislike of glasses or contacts

How Long Does It Take?

  • Once you receive your custom Ortho-K contact lenses, it will take anywhere from one to four weeks to fully see all the benefits to your vision that they will provide. However, some of our patients find that their vision has improved after only wearing their lenses for a single night!
  • During the first few days, you may also still need to wear prescription lenses to see clearly enough to drive or get through your normal day, but that is generally quickly resolved.
  • Also, some patients experience some mild discomfort for the first few nights, but as your eyes adjust over a few days, you should no longer be bothered by the feel of your lenses.
