Wouldn’t it be great to be able to see clearly and get rid of your thick eyeglasses without having to undergo eye surgery? With our services for Orthokeratology in Costa Mesa, CA and the surrounding communities you definitely can. Here at Insight Vision Center Optometry our highly skilled doctors will fit your eyes with special contact lenses that you wear overnight. These lenses are specifically designed to correct your eyes and improve your vision.

While you sleep the lenses will gently and painlessly reshape your cornea, temporarily correcting the misshapen part of your eyes that causes blurry vision. The correction is not permanent so your eyes will go back to their original prescription if you stop wearing the overnight lenses.

How Orthokeratology Works

The cornea, the clear dome shaped surface of your eyeball, is soft and malleable. It helps focus light toward the back of our eye and onto our retina. If your cornea does not focus light properly this results in blurry vision which we diagnose either as myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), and/or astigmatism (irregular curvature). Much like a retainer helps to straighten your teeth, we custom design our retainer contact lenses to “straighten” out the curvature of your cornea while you sleep. This allows your eyes to focus light properly so that you get a crisp image without having to wear glasses or daytime contacts. This innovative solution can also slow down the progression of myopia in children ultimately leaving them with a lower prescription for the rest of their lives.

Potential Candidates for Orthokeratology

Ask us about our services for orthokeratology in Costa Mesa, CA and the surrounding areas. The best candidates for orthokeratology are:

Children with worsening myopia
Patients who are unable to wear daytime contact lenses due to allergies or dry eyes
Patients looking for an alternative to refractive surgery (LASIK)
Adults and kids active in sports where glasses get in the way
Adults and kids that surf or swim
Adults with jobs that are cumbersome to wear glasses or contacts
Patients who simply dislike wearing glasses or daytime contacts

Not all prescriptions are possible to correct and certain eye conditions may disqualify you from being able to do orthokeratology. So a consultation is necessary to determine if you are a great candidate for this technology or not.

My first eye exam in fifteen years. I am so thankful that I found Insight Vision Center. Dr. Lam and staff made me feel like a welcome guest. My eye exam revealed very minor blurriness and Dr. Lam did not pressure me into purchasing eyewear for a condition not necessitating glasses… yet. Maybe next year? I am getting older. They took my VSP insurance. Yay!

Scott H.

Dr. Lam and staff are amazing. Every phone call or interaction is friendly. You can feel the smiles and joy over whatever mode of communication you are interacting with them. Dr. Lam is very knowledgeable and helps you to better understand everything that is going on with your eyes. She made me aware of potential problems I may have with my eyes and walked me through every step of the process. She helped me understand the various factors that could be causing my vision to be a little impaired and followed up with me as I had to see an ophthalmologist. Great team, great office.
