Industry Trends and Drivers:
- Myopia Epidemic:
The myopia epidemic refers to an ever-increasing prevalence of myopia around the globe, especially in the youth population. The more myopia develops at an early age, the more the demand rises for the ortho-k lens. Besides, ortho-k lenses provide management for myopia non-surgically. Ortho-k lenses give patients the ability to correct their myopia and slow any further development without surgery, such as LASIK. For parents and children, this is especially appealing, given the current concern about the safety and long-term effects of surgery.
- Safety and Non-Invasiveness:
The safety of ortho-k can be classified as low-risk when comparing it with others like surgery where potential risks and complications may exist. In contrast to surgery, which carries the risk of adverse effects or complications, ortho-k merely requires the patient to wear special contact lenses while sleeping. This greatly reduces the chances of such negative effect or complications occurring. Furthermore, ortho-k treatment is completely reversible in nature; and should the patient decide to remove ortho-k lenses, the cornea will return to its original shape after some time due to reversibility, allowing the patient flexibility and peace of mind. Ortho-k lenses work for myopic children and adolescents. Opting for non-invasive vision correction for their children is often the preference of parents-or- ortho-k fits perfectly here.
- Advancements in Lens Technology:
Modern ortho-k lens materials design is such as to make them sufficiently oxygen permeable, thereby improving corneal health and comfort during the night hours. This minimizes corneal complications and thus makes the ortho-k treatment safer. The advancement in technology has made it possible for eye care professionals to customize ortho-k lenses according to every patient's unique corneal shape and prescription. Precision in this regard will lead to favorable visual results and greater satisfaction on the part of the patient.
