Do you have myopia and to wear glasses or contact lenses does bother you? Do you want an alternative to surgery? The Ortho-k contact lenses are contact lenses that you can wear while you sleep in order to forget about glasses during the day. By means of the <\/span>Refractive Corneal Theraphy (CRT)<\/span>, these contact lenses modify the corneal curve correcting the myopia \u2013 as well as astigmatism and hyperopia \u2013 in order to enjoy a clear vision during the journey. <\/span><\/p>\n

1.<\/span> Why do you forget about glasses and contact lenses during the day? <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

There are many advantages of having a <\/span>clear vision <\/span>without wearing any type of lense, especially in summer time. While being in the swimming pool or in the beach, where we are exposed to water and sand that can go into our eyes, the fact of wearing no type of lense decreases the probabilities of irritation and annoyance. Inconveniences are also avoided due to movement or sweat while practising sport or , for example, when we put on the motorbike’s helmet.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. The best procedure to slow down the myopia significantly:<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Refractive Corneal Therapy is the best therapy to slow down the myopia in an important way. Many patients that use these contact lenses notice significative changes in the first days of treatment, correcting the myopia completely in one or two weeks maximum. <\/span><\/p>\n

In fact, these are an<\/span> excellent alternative to surgery<\/span>,<\/span> especially in occasions where it is ill-advised, in addition, in those cases implying children and young people with evolutionary myopia. <\/span><\/p>\n

3. <\/span>A treatment approved by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) and the CE (European Commission):<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Since this is a treatment that many people do not know, they think this is a new treatment. The truth is that since many years ago, hundreds of patients use the Refractive Corneal Therapy, which is applied by means of the Ortho-k contact lense, the first and only contact lense authorized by the FDA, American Health Organization similar to the Spanish Health Ministry and the European Commission.<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Ortho-K, contact lenses for all ages:<\/b><\/p>\n

Especially recommended for young people, these contact lenses are adequate for any age. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>5.\u00a0 <\/span>Until how many dioptries can these contact lenses correct ?<\/b><\/p>\n

The Ortho-k contact lenses correct until 6.00 graduation in myopia, until 1,75 in astigmatism and until 3.00 in hyperopia.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
