Ortho-K is a non-surgical process which reshapes (flattens) the cornea of the eye using contact lenses. Accelerated Ortho-K uses reverse geometry contact lenses. Flattening the cornea reduces the focusing power of the eye. If the amount of corneal flattening is accurately controlled, it is possible to bring the eye into correct focus and compensate for myopia (nearsightedness).

Our philosophy is to provide thorough eye exams on all of our patients age 4 and up and check for cataracts and glaucoma using the most current and advanced techniques available. We have a beautiful, newly remodeled office and optical boutique with new frames, priced for every budget, and we still provide repairs free of charge for most problems.

Myopia Prevention is a site about eyes, why they become myopic (nearsighted or shortsighted) and how you might slow or stop that process. It is written for parents, students and doctors. Options are laid out for those interested in their own or their child's vision. The extensive myopia research with references to the professional literature, including links, are for clinicians or others who are interested in learning about the most current data.
