What is Ortho-K?
Orthokeratology (ortho-k) Therapeutic Lenses
Enjoy the freedom from glasses and day time contact lenses with iSee Ortho-k corneal reshaping therapy. iSee orthokeratology therapeutic lenses gently reshape the corneal surface while sleeping. Remove the lenses when you awake to enjoy clear natural vision throughout the day. iSee Ortho-K corneal refractive therapy lenses are a great vision solution for outdoor sports like swimming, soccer, football and running – where glasses or contact lenses may not allow for optimum performance. For those too young for Lasik surgery the iSee Ortho-k retainer overnight vision correction contact lenses are an excellent choice to meet the need for natural unassisted vision.
