Want to get rid of your glasses without surgery? Special night-time Ortho-K lenses might be for you or your children. These lenses gently reshape the surface of the eye at night while sleeping. They are removed in the morning giving you clear vision without the need for glasses and contact lenses. The principle is similar to the use of dental retainer used by an orthodontist to realign crooked teeth.

I am so excited to offer this service in our practice. Not only to get rid of glasses and contact lenses, but studies have shown that those who use Ortho-k lenses reduce the rate at which their nearsightedness is worsening.
