Ortho-K at Vani Vision: Freedom from Glasses & Daytime Contacts

If you’re searching for a way to enjoy clear vision without glasses or daytime contact lenses, we offer an innovative solution with ortho-K, a vision correction method that has transformed the lives of many.

Dr. Nikil Patel, a certified Paragon CRT (Corneal Refractive Therapy) practitioner, brings over a decade of experience to our practice near Cumberland Mall. His expertise in ortho-K, a non-surgical vision correction method, offers patients a unique alternative to traditional eyewear, ensuring clear vision and a level of freedom many have yet to experience.

What is Ortho-K?

Ortho-K, or corneal reshaping therapy (CRT), is a transformative approach to vision correction.

Wearing these specially designed gas-permeable lenses overnight can reshape the cornea and temporarily correct myopia and astigmatism. This means you can wake up to clearer, better vision without reaching for your glasses or contacts.

The benefits are numerous, offering not just freedom from daytime eyewear but also the potential to slow down the progression of nearsightedness, especially in children.

Are You a Candidate for Ortho-K?

Ortho-K can be an excellent option for many individuals, including:

• Children and teenagers experiencing nearsightedness.
• Active individuals or those working in environments where glasses and contacts are impractical.
• Those seeking an alternative to LASIK due to ineligibility or preference.

The Ortho-K Process at Vani Vision

It begins with a comprehensive eye examination to assess your suitability for ortho-K. We use a topographer to ensure precise and accurate corneal mapping, among other tests.

Following this, Dr. Patel custom designs lenses specifically for your eyes Regular follow-up visits are essential to monitor progress and adjust the fit as needed, ensuring the best possible outcome.

We do not offer in-house eyewear sales, but we’ve partnered with the nearby Costco Optical to provide you access to high-quality eyeglasses, contact lenses, and accessories. You can conveniently pick up your eyewear just steps away from your appointment.

Success Rates and What to Expect

With ortho-K, over 65% of patients achieve 20/20 vision, and most notice significant improvements within the first few weeks.

While the adjustment period may bring temporary ‘disadvantages’ such as glare or halos, these effects reduce as your eyes adapt to the lenses. In some cases, a temporary pair of glasses may be necessary for tasks like nighttime driving until your vision stabilizes.

Comfort and Safety

The comfort of wearing ortho-K lenses is unparalleled, as they work while you sleep. Made from breathable materials, these lenses are designed for safe overnight use. We emphasize eye health and safety above everything else, ensuring every patient receives FDA-approved, quality lenses for their ortho-K treatment.
