Why Park Slope Family Eye Care Recommends Overnight Orthokeratology for Kids:

1. Effective Myopia Control: Research has indicated that Ortho-K lenses may help slow down the progression of myopia in children. By reshaping the cornea, these lenses correct refractive errors and potentially reduce the elongation of the eyeball, a common cause of myopia progression.

2. Improved Visual Acuity and Quality of Life: With Overnight Orthokeratology, children experience clear vision throughout the day, enhancing their academic performance, participation in sports, and overall quality of life. They no longer need to worry about wearing glasses or daytime contact lenses, allowing them to fully engage in activities without visual hindrances.

3. Sports Performance and Safety: For kids involved in sports and outdoor activities, wearing glasses or traditional contact lenses can be inconvenient and potentially risky. Ortho-K lenses offer clear vision without the need for daytime eyewear, ensuring a wider field of view and freedom of movement, thereby enhancing sports performance and safety.

4. Convenience and Simplicity: Park Slope Family Eye Care understands the importance of convenience for busy families. Overnight Orthokeratology provides a simple solution as children only need to wear the lenses overnight while they sleep. There’s no need to worry about glasses or daytime contact lenses, making it a hassle-free option that fits seamlessly into a child’s routine.

5. Expert Care and Monitoring: At Park Slope Family Eye Care, our experienced optometrists specialize in Overnight Orthokeratology for kids. We provide thorough eye examinations, lens fittings, and ongoing monitoring to ensure optimal results and your child’s safety throughout the process.
