Get Clear Vision Overnight with Ortho-K Lens in Singapore

At People’s Optics, We Offer Comprehensive Eye Assessment Services To Determine Your Suitability And Provide Fittings For Ortho-K Lenses In Singapore Based On Individual Requirements And Ensuring Optimal Vision Correction.

What are Ortho-K Lenses

Ortho-K lenses, abbreviated for Orthokeratology lenses, offer a revolutionary approach to achieving clear vision without the need for daytime glasses or contact lenses. 

They are specially designed rigid overnight lenses that reshape the cornea while you sleep. This non-invasive and reversible process corrects vision by temporarily altering the curvature of the cornea, providing clear vision during the day without the need for spectacles or traditional contact lenses.

The use of the Ortho-K lens serves a myriad of benefits:

Vision Correction

Ortho-K lenses effectively correct myopia (near-sightedness) and mild astigmatism, providing clear vision throughout the day.

Daytime Freedom

You can enjoy clear vision during the day without requiring glasses or daytime contact lenses.

Non-Invasive

Unlike surgical procedures, Ortho-K lenses offer a non-invasive vision correction method, making them a good option for individuals seeking reversible alternatives.

Kids-Friendly

Ortho-K lenses are suitable for children and can potentially help to slow down the progression of myopia, making them a popular choice for concerned parents.

Key Benefits

How?

Ortho-K, involves wearing specially designed lenses overnight. It's a non-invasive way to help maintain clearer vision and potentially reduce the need for stronger power of glasses over time.

Is it safe?

Ortho-K is generally safe and effective when used as prescribed by a qualified Optometrist.

Safe & Reversible

Unlike LASIK, it is surgery-free and can be stopped at any point of time.

Is it permanent?

Ortho-K's effects are temporary. Regular wear is needed to sustain clear vision. Discontinuation may lead to a return of shortsightedness.

Suits Active Lifestyle

Ortho-K provides clear vision without glasses during swimming and active sports, enhancing the experience of an active lifestyle.

Comfortable?

Since your eyes are closed during sleep, you typically do not feel anything at all while sleeping.

Using Ortho-K lens

One of the common questions that arise with the use of lenses is if they are easy to wear. The good news is that Ortho-K lenses are often regarded as among the most convenient types of contact lenses to use. Their material composition is rigid, aiding in easier handling compared to the more flexible soft contact lenses.

Additionally, Ortho-K lenses have a smaller size compared to the majority of soft contact lenses, making the application process simpler. Although their compact size might make them a bit more challenging to take out than soft lenses, there are readily available techniques to facilitate this task, and once you get used to the idea of applying and removing them, it should not be difficult at all.

At the same time, the overnight wear feature of Ortho-K lenses offers distinct advantages. Once the lenses are applied, the wearer closes their eyes and falls asleep, eliminating concerns about a lens falling off or getting lost during the day.

How Does Ortho-K Work?

The lenses softly and gradually reshape the surface of your eye as you sleep. When you wake up and remove your contact lenses, you should be able to see clearly for the rest of the day without the need for glasses or contact lenses.
