CROWFOOT VISION CENTRE: EXPERIENCED EYE DOCTORS IN SCENIC ACRES, CALGARY

Contacts are a great option for many of our clients and we have a few different types of contacts for your try at your next appointment. These can be coloured lenses or even sleep-approved lenses. Some clients are looking for an option to remove the need for contacts or glasses completely. For that, our Scenic Acres optometrist at Crowfoot Vision Centre might recommend orthokeratology.

Orthokeratology, or ortho-k, is the process of wearing specially designed contacts at night to reshape the front of your eye to help you see better. This is often compared to a retainer, but for your eyes instead! If you want to have better vision without the hassle of a full laser surgery then this might be the right step for you. These contacts gradually reshape your eye to a more ideal shape for give you 20/20 or better vision. This is completely reversible and a non-invasive option.

Have a child that struggles with myopia? Ortho-k can be used in children as young as 10, and can help slow or even stop the progression of myopia. Parents who have a high prescription and have children that are starting to show signs of high myopia should talk to their eye doctors to see if orthokeratology would be a good solution.
