Orthokeratology (Ortho-K) Services in Tustin, CA: Clear Vision Without Glasses or Surgery

Welcome to Booth Eye, your premier destination for comprehensive vision care in Tustin, CA. We are thrilled to offer Orthokeratology (Ortho-K) services, a revolutionary non-surgical vision correction method. Ortho-K allows you to enjoy clear vision during the day without the need for glasses or contacts. Whether you are nearsighted, farsighted, or have astigmatism, Ortho-K might be the perfect solution for you. In this guide, we will explain what Ortho-K is, its benefits, the process of getting fitted, and why Booth Eye is your top choice for Ortho-K services.

Understanding Orthokeratology (Ortho-K): Clear Vision While You Sleep

Orthokeratology, also known as Ortho-K, is a safe and non-surgical vision correction technique. It involves wearing specially designed gas-permeable contact lenses overnight. These lenses gently reshape the cornea, the clear front surface of the eye, to correct refractive errors. When you wake up in the morning and remove the lenses, you will experience improved vision throughout the day without needing glasses or contacts.

The Benefits of Ortho-K: Clear Vision and More

1. Clear Vision All Day: Ortho-K provides clear and crisp vision during the day without the hassle of glasses or contacts. You can enjoy sports, outdoor activities, and work without any visual limitations.
2. Non-Surgical and Reversible: Ortho-K is a non-invasive and reversible procedure. If you decide to discontinue using the lenses, your cornea will gradually return to its original shape, and your vision will revert to its previous state.
3. Myopia Control: Ortho-K has shown promising results in controlling the progression of myopia (nearsightedness) in children and young adults. This can potentially reduce the risk of developing high myopia and related eye complications later in life.
4. Comfort and Convenience: The specially designed Ortho-K lenses are crafted to be comfortable to wear while you sleep, without any discomfort or dryness associated with traditional contact lenses.
5. Suitable for Various Refractive Errors: Ortho-K can effectively correct myopia, hyperopia (farsightedness), and astigmatism, making it a versatile option for many individuals seeking clear vision.

The Ortho-K Fitting Process: Your Journey to Clear Sight

At Booth Eye in Tustin, CA, we provide comprehensive Ortho-K fittings to ensure the best results for our patients. The fitting process typically involves several steps:

1. Initial Consultation: During your first visit, our experienced optometrist will assess your overall eye health and discuss your vision needs and lifestyle. This evaluation will help determine if Ortho-K is a suitable option for you.
2. Corneal Mapping: Using advanced corneal topography and imaging technology, we will create a precise and detailed map of your cornea. This map will be used to design custom Ortho-K lenses that are tailored to the unique shape of your eyes.
3. Trial Lenses: Based on the corneal map, you will be provided with trial Ortho-K lenses to wear overnight. These lenses will allow you to experience the potential benefits of Ortho-K and ensure that they are comfortable and effective for your eyes.
4. Follow-Up Visits: After wearing the trial lenses for a specific period, you will have follow-up visits to assess the progress of the corneal reshaping and make any necessary adjustments to optimize the results.
5. Final Prescription: Once the desired level of vision correction is achieved and the fit is confirmed, the final Ortho-K lenses will be prescribed, and you will receive proper instructions for their care and maintenance.
