New 2025 study (BMC Ophthalmology, DOI: 10.1186/s12886-025-04265-8) shows:
π Kids in OrthoK do better when follow-ups are regular.
π Axial length, not just prescription, shows if myopia is really under control.
Follow-up = better future vision.

J has been wearing OrthoK for 20+ years. Once a week = 20/20 vision.
OrthoK = overnight lens that reshapes the eye while you sleep. Works for kids and adults at any age. Great option if you donβt like glasses or LASIK.

I want a solar alarm clock for kids: goes off every 30 mins, only stops after 5 mins in the sun. Myopia prevention + peace & quiet for parents. Doesnβt existβ¦ yet.

Just a reminder from your local eye doc:
Wear your sunnies π
UV rays = wrinkles, crowβs feet, and higher cataract risk.
Even on cloudy days, they sneak in.
Less squinting, better skin, happier eyes.

Back then, I fought visible threats.
Now I fight the invisible onesβlike myopia in kids.
No headlines. Just biology, screens, and time.
Different battlefield.
Same mission: protect what matters.

Ortho-K lenses do more than correct vision while your child sleeps.
