Corneal Reshaping

Corneal reshaping, also known as orthokeratology or Ortho-K, is a non-surgical procedure that uses specially designed contact lenses to temporarily reshape the cornea—the clear front surface of the eye. By gently modifying the cornea's curvature overnight, it corrects refractive errors like nearsightedness (myopia), allowing clear vision during the day without glasses or daytime contact lenses. The effects are reversible; if the lenses are not worn regularly, the cornea gradually returns to its original shape. This technique offers an alternative for those seeking to reduce dependence on corrective eyewear, especially in cases of myopia management.
