Received Date: Jul 01, 2024 / Published Date: Jul 26, 2024
Abstract
Orthokeratology (Ortho-K), often referred to as corneal reshaping therapy or overnight vision correction, is a non-surgical method aimed at temporarily reducing or eliminating refractive errors such as myopia (nearsightedness) and astigmatism. This innovative approach utilizes specially designed gas-permeable contact lenses to reshape the cornea overnight, providing clear vision during the day without the need for glasses or traditional contact lenses
