For those who wish to reduce the time spent on glasses or daytime contact lenses, Valley Optometry Eyecare Center provides Northridge Orthokeratology services. Orthokeratology, also known as Ortho-K, is a non-surgical process of reshaping the cornea with the help of specially designed contact lenses that are worn at night to help the patient see clearly during the day without the use of glasses or contact lenses.Ortho-K is especially used by children and young adults who are experiencing myopia progression because it is one of the most effective ways to control the progression of the condition. It is a type of contact lens that is worn at night and removed in the morning. The corneal reshaping that occurs at night allows the patient to have clear vision during the day without the use of glasses or daytime contact lenses. It has become one of the most popular services for myopia control in Northridge and the rest of the region.
“At Valley Optometry, our aim is to give the patient a chance to get rid of their glasses and at the same time protect their eyes,” said a representative of the practice. “Northridge Orthokeratology is a comfortable, convenient, and effective treatment with an individual approach to each patient.”
The center uses corneal topography to map the shape of the eye and then produce lenses that will fit the shape of the eye. This precision ensures that the lenses are well positioned and that the vision correction is as accurate as it can be. Since Ortho-K is contact-lens-based, it is ideal for children who cannot do LASIK surgery or adults who do not wish to do so.
The Ortho-K service offered by Valley Optometry is quite extensive and customer-oriented. Each patient receives a comprehensive eye check-up, corneal topography, contact lens check, and advice on the use and care of the lenses. This is because follow-ups are important, just as it is important to ensure that the patient is safe and that the treatment is effective all through the process.
The patients and parents of young children are always surprised by the simplicity and efficacy of the treatment. Some of the benefits that many people have reported include improved self-esteem, better performance in sports and in classwork, and the fact that they do not have to wear glasses during the day. Due to the growing awareness, Northridge Orthokeratology is becoming a popular measure in children’s eye care.
In addition to Ortho-K, the company offers other myopia control solutions including multifocal lenses and advice on how to protect the eyes in the future. Their team is committed to making sure that they are up to date with the current advancements in optometric science in order to provide the best services.
