Any1 tried ortho-k lenses?

Question

And acctually have 20/20 vision the next morning? Bcuz it seems to good to be true. Iam very sceptical.

Answer 1

I am wearing mine right now.

And yes, they do work.

You wear them just like a regular contact lens. However these ones aren't as comfortable because they are hard and put pressure on your eye. When the pressure is put on your eye, it is reshaping your cornea (the outer bit on your eye).

You are meant to put them on before you go to bed. You then sleep with them on and let the contact do the magic. It reshapes your eye while you sleep. When you wake up, your eye is in perfect shape. The image is focused now and you can see perfectly (well, it works for me). Towards the end of the day (like 9 o'clock), your vision starts to deteriorate because your eye starts returning to its normal shape.

That's why you wear them every night. To restore your vision to 20/20 every day.

I have been using them for 2 years now and I have to say they're the best things i've ever done for my eyes.

BTW

You don't have to sleep for it to work. In the old days, you actually wore them during the day. You can put them in 2 hours or so before you go to bed. That's why I'm answering your question! (It's 10:30pm in Australia)

I hope I helped

Answer 2

Yah is good but got to see if u are suitable for the lenses. Cos wearing the lenses to sleep will mean a lot of things to the eyes.
