Your Local Paragon CRT Ortho-K Lenses Experts

FDA-approved overnight orthokeratology lenses for temporary myopia correction and off-label myopia management in children.

Paragon CRT (Corneal Refractive Therapy) is the most recognized orthokeratology brand worldwide, with over 3 million patients fitted. FDA-approved (PMA) since 2002 for temporary myopia correction, these custom gas-permeable lenses are worn overnight to gently reshape the cornea while you sleep. Wake up, remove the lenses, and see clearly all day without glasses or contacts. While FDA-approved for vision correction, Paragon CRT is also widely used off-label for myopia management in children — orthokeratology as a class has shown 30-60% slowing of axial elongation across multiple randomized trials.

At EyeCare Center of Orange County, we understand that residents of Orange County deserve access to world-class eye care close to home. Our practice, conveniently located in Santa Ana, serves patients from throughout the county, providing comprehensive paragon crt ortho-k lenses services with a patient-first approach.

Paragon CRT Ortho-K Lenses FAQs for Orange County Patients

How much does Paragon CRT cost?+

Paragon CRT costs are part of our ortho-k program, which runs $2,000-$4,500 depending on prescription complexity. This typically covers the custom lenses, fitting, and first-year follow-up visits. Replacement lenses are $600-$800 per pair. See our detailed ortho-k cost page for the full breakdown.

Paragon CRT vs Abiliti — what is the difference?+

Both are FDA-approved ortho-k lenses worn overnight. Paragon CRT has been available since 2002 with the longest track record. Abiliti Overnight (J&J/Menicon, FDA-approved May 2021) is specifically labeled for myopia management and has a specialized astigmatism design. We fit both and recommend based on your prescription and goals.

Is Paragon CRT safe for children?+

Yes. Orthokeratology has been used in children for decades with an excellent safety record when lens hygiene protocols are followed. The most important safety factor is consistent cleaning — we train every patient and parent thoroughly on the overnight care routine.

How long do CRT results last during the day?+

Most patients achieve clear vision lasting the full waking day (16+ hours) after the first week of wear. Some higher prescriptions may notice slight blur by late evening initially. Consistent nightly wear provides the most stable daytime correction.
