OrthoKeratology (Ortho-k) has often been labelled the safe alternative to laser surgery. It is a procedure where the patient sleeps in specially designed lenses, removing them in the morning and having clear vision without having to wear contact lenses or glasses for one or two days. Unlike laser surgery it is completely reversible.
Ortho-k is ideal for serious sportsmen and women especially those involved with swimming, surfing or any water based sports, because the traditional risks of wearing contact lenses in water don’t apply as you won't have the lenses in when you are taking part. |

Also it's fantastic for those involved in martial arts or boxing as the advisory bodies of these organisations often recommend against the use of contact lenses in case of problems following a blow to the face.
There is also ongoing research to verify claims that Orthokeratology can also halt the progress of myopia (shortsight)!
