Orthokeratology (Ortho K)
Orthokeratology (Ortho-K) is a non-invasive and safe option for vision correction without the need for glasses or contacts. This innovative technique uses special contact lenses to gently reshape the cornea overnight, providing clear and sharp vision throughout the day.
At Optometrist Parramatta, we offer Ortho-K as a means of controlling myopia progression and improving visual acuity, particularly in children and young adolescents.
Book a comprehensive 360° Eye Test today to assess your suitability for Ortho-K.
Myopia Control
Myopia, also known as nearsightedness, is a common vision problem that often starts in childhood and can worsen over time.
We provide a range of treatments, including MiSight lenses by CooperVision and MiyoSmart lenses by Hoya. These lenses have been clinically proven to help slow down myopia progression and reduce the risk of eye conditions later in life.
We offer a dedicated and comprehensive Child Myopia 360° Exam that encompasses a full eye examination along with specialised assessments to monitor myopia progression and explore potential treatment options, which commonly include prescription lenses or special contact lenses.
