Reshape Your Vision with Ortho-K

Orthokeratology, commonly known as ortho-k, is a nonsurgical procedure where a specific type of rigid gas-permeable contact lens is worn at night to gently and temporarily reshape the cornea — potentially leading to an improvement in vision the following day.

Ortho-k contact lenses are primarily used for vision correction in people with short-sightedness (myopia), but they can also be used for far-sightedness as well as astigmatism.

This type of treatment can be used to treat Myopia in children and adults.

Here at Smiths we are ready to guide you through this process and help you decide if Ortho-K is the right choice for you or your child.
