FAQs on OrthoK
Orthokeratology, often called Ortho-K, is a non-surgical vision correction option that uses custom rigid gas-permeable contact lenses worn while sleeping. The lenses gently reshape the front surface of the eye, called the cornea, so vision can be clearer during the day after the lenses are removed.The effect is temporary and reversible, which means the lenses must be worn as prescribed to maintain clear daytime vision. Ortho-K may be used for nearsightedness, and in some cases astigmatism, and it is also used as part of myopia management for children.
Yes. In Ontario, optometrists are authorized to prescribe and dispense contact lenses for vision and eye problems, and Ortho-K lenses are a type of specialty contact lens. Because Ortho-K lenses are custom-designed to gently reshape the cornea overnight, they require precise measurements, specialty fitting, training, and regular follow-up care. At Complete Eyecare, your optometrist will assess your prescription, corneal shape, eye health, tear film, and lifestyle to determine whether Ortho-K is a safe and suitable option.
Ortho-K lenses are typically worn overnight while you sleep and removed in the morning. Many patients wear them nightly to maintain clear daytime vision because the corneal reshaping effect is temporary. If lens wear is stopped, the eye gradually returns toward its original shape and the prescription effect wears off. Your exact wearing schedule will depend on your prescription, eye shape, treatment goals, and your optometrist’s instructions. To keep Ortho-K safe and effective, it is important to clean and store lenses properly, attend follow-up visits, and contact your eye doctor right away if you experience redness, pain, discharge, light sensitivity, or sudden changes in vision.
