Improve Your Vision While You Sleep!

Imagine putting on a pair of eye retainers before you go to bed, removing them when you wake up, and then being able to see clearly without any glasses or contacts the rest of the day!

Corneal Refractive Therapy (CRT) and Orthokeratology (Ortho-K) are two names for the practice of gently reshaping the cornea to temporarily eliminate myopia (nearsight). Developed over the past 42 years, this procedure is now gaining recognition as a much safer and much less expensive alternative to refractive surgery.

The reshaping begins to work immediately. By the first morning, the vision has undergone a dramatic improvement, and within 1-2 weeks, the vision is clear all day. Because the lenses have your prescription built into them, you can wear them during the day to speed up the improvement time. When the desired visual acuity is reached, retainer lenses are provided to maintain the clear vision for as long as possible. Over time, the duration of the effect increases, and many of Dr. Jeruss' patients wear their eye retainers as little as 2-3 days per week.

People with vision as poor as 20/400 have an excellent likelihood of obtaining 20/20 uncorrected vision without any of the side effects or negative outcomes associated with LASIK surgery. Ortho-K has also been proven in many studies to slow the progression of nearsight in children. CRT has been approved by the FDA for up to -6.00 diopters of nearsight.

We have been successfully performing CRT and/or Ortho-K for longer than anyone in the Atlanta area (over 20 years!). Call us and see for yourself why we are so excited about this procedure!
