Orthokeratology (Ortho-K Night Lenses) | Innovative Eye Care | Adelaide Clinic

Orthokeratology, also called Ortho-K or night lenses provides clear vision without daytime glasses or surgery. The orthokeratology lens is a custom speciality rigid contact lens worn overnight to gently reshape the cornea. By morning, you’ll wake up with clear vision all day long, no glasses required.

What Is Orthokeratology?

Orthokeratology (Ortho-K) is a safe, non-surgical treatment where specially designed contact lenses temporarily reshape the front of your eye (cornea). This provides crisp daytime vision and can also help to slow the progression of myopia (short-sightedness). For more information click here.

How Ortho-K Night Lenses Work

• Lenses are worn overnight while you sleep.
• They gently flatten the cornea to correct your vision.
• In the morning, lenses are removed, leaving you with clear vision all day.

This process is completely reversible; stop wearing the lenses and your eyes return to their natural shape.
