Ortho-K LK Lens
No Glasses, No Daytime Contact lenses, Just Great Vision!
Vision you've dreamed while you are sleeping.
Orthokeratology is,
The temporary reduction of myopia achieved by the programmed application of contact lenses to reshape the cornea. Modern orthokeratology (ortho-k) achieves this with reverse geometry gas permeable [GP] ortho-k shaping lenses that is specially designed and worn during sleep.
History of orthokeratology
Orthokeratology, or ortho-k fitting, has been employed since the early 1960s In one or another form in the United States by George Jessen. In 1996, Dr.Tom Reim developed 4 Curve Design ortho-k lens for more effective and safe. Now Lucid Korea has developed 5 Curve Design ortho-k lens for advanced orthokeratology.
Gently change the shape of your eye to correct Myopia
The Ortho-K LK Lens Contact lens is a unique gas permeable contact lens that changes the shape of the eye while sleeping. The result is improved for uncorrected vision throughout the day. The Ortho-K LK Lens offers an alternative solution. Unlike surgical procedures whose results are permanent, the Ortho-K LK Lens design can be fine-tuned to address any future vision needs. Plus, if you choose to stop wearing the Ortho-K LK Lens, the eye returns to its original shape.
Gently change the shape of your eye to correct Myopia
ㆍ The alternative way of myopia management, not through surgery
ㆍ Higher safety than surgery (PRK), Low rate of critical side effect
ㆍ Can be reversible after 3~4 weeks, discontinuing lens wear
ㆍ Effective to reduce myopia at every age, especially for juvenile
ㆍ Can be controlled myopia progression as well as myopia reduction
ㆍ Easy to reduce myopia by overnight wear of lenses
ㆍ Not necessary to wear lenses at daytime
Strong point of ortho-K LK lens
The effect which suppresses a myopia progress is proven. Recently the effect which suppresses a nearsighted progress from test result of the researchers has given proof and vision is continuously effective in the growth period young people who become worse.
Experience Improved Vision on the Very First Day
Typically only one night is required to see an improvement in uncorrected vision. It is not unusual to have excellent uncorrected vision on the next morning after the first night of wear. Within one week, in most cases, only nightwear is required to maintain good vision throughout the day.
