Above all, we want to help you make a well informed decision.
Orthokeratology at Total Eye Care starts with a comprehensive eye exam where we will determine how nearsighted you are and check the health of your eyes. With the eye exam complete we now need to find out more about your eyes and perform special diagnostic test that will help us evaluate the health of your cornea using a specular microscope and get detailed corneal shape information with a corneal topographer. With this information your doctor will design a contact lens for you. All Orthokeratology lenses are custom designed and generally take 7-10 days to fabricate.
When the lens arrives a contact lens tech will verify lens parameters and call you to schedule a time where we will show you how to insert, remove and take care of your new contact lenses. The doctor will look at the lenses on your eyes to ensure that they are fitting as expected and send you home with instructions to wear them overnight and return the next day.
On day 1 you will typically notice marked improvement in your vision but the effect may not be 100% complete. The doctor will check your vision and see how your eyes are responding to the treatment. The number of visits following the receipt of your corneal molds will depend on how your eye responds. Once the initial treatment is complete you will probably be asked to return in 3 to 6 months.
