Orthokeratology (Ortho-K) FAQs for Forster Ranch Patients
How does Ortho-K work?+
Ortho-K lenses gently reshape your cornea while you sleep using hydraulic forces under the lens. The corneal reshaping temporarily corrects your refractive error, allowing clear vision when you remove the lenses in the morning.
Is Ortho-K safe for children?+
Yes, Ortho-K is very safe for children when properly fitted and monitored. It is FDA-approved and has been used worldwide for decades. For children with progressive myopia, Ortho-K provides the added benefit of slowing myopia progression.
How long do Ortho-K results last?+
Clear vision typically lasts throughout the day. Some patients with higher prescriptions may notice slight vision reduction by evening. Consistent nightly wear maintains optimal results.
What happens if I stop wearing Ortho-K lenses?+
Ortho-K is fully reversible. If you stop wearing the lenses, your cornea gradually returns to its original shape over several days to weeks, and your original prescription returns.
Can Ortho-K correct astigmatism?+
Yes, Ortho-K can correct low to moderate amounts of astigmatism (typically up to -1.75D). Modern lens designs can address both myopia and astigmatism simultaneously.
