RGP OrthoK Lenses | | | General Information | |
| Vendor | | Danker Laboratories, Inc. | | Item | | RGP OrthoK Lenses | | Catalog Number | | Inquire | | Features | | - Orthokeratology is a nonsurgical therapy that uses specially-designed RGP contact lenses to reduce or eliminate myopia by temporarily altering the shape of the cornea.
- This procedure is used to improve unaided visual acuity (UVA) by reducing refractive errors caused by the naturally irregular corneas of myopic patients.
- OrthoK is favored by many patients over LASIK and other types of corneal surgery because it is noninvasive and reversible.
- Significant advancements have been made in the science and practice of orthokeratology since it was introduced in the early 1960's. Early OrthoK utilized a series of progressively flatter lenses to achieve a gradual series of corneal changes. Today, with the advent of advanced corneal topographic technology and precision computer-assisted contact lens lathes, OrthoK practitioners are able to reach acuity correction that once required multiple lenses, months of therapy and frequent patient refits and follow-up sessions.
