Ortho-K in Seoul

Non-surgical vision correction while you sleep.



At B&VITT Eye Clinic in Seoul, Orthokeratology (Ortho-K) offers a safe, non-invasive way to correct your vision—without daytime glasses or contact lenses. By simply wearing specially designed lenses overnight, you can wake up with clearer vision throughout the day.

Ortho-K is an excellent option for both children and adults, especially those with mild to moderate myopia (nearsightedness) or active lifestyles where glasses or contacts are inconvenient.

What Is Ortho-K?

Ortho-K involves wearing custom-fitted gas-permeable contact lenses while you sleep. These lenses gently reshape the surface of your cornea overnight, so you can see clearly during the day without needing glasses or contacts.

The effects are temporary and reversible, making Ortho-K a flexible and non-surgical alternative to LASIK or SMILE.

Why Choose Ortho-K?

Ortho-K is especially popular with:

• Children and teenagers with progressive myopia
• Adults who are not ready for surgery
• Athletes or people with active, outdoor lifestyles
• Individuals with dry eyes who struggle with soft contact lenses
• Patients seeking a non-permanent vision correction solution

It’s also been shown to slow the progression of myopia in children, making it a proactive choice for long-term eye health.

Who Is a Candidate?

You may be a good candidate for Ortho-K if you:

• Have mild to moderate myopia (up to around -6.00 diopters)
• May have low levels of astigmatism
• Have healthy corneas and eyes
• Are looking for a non-surgical and reversible option
• Are committed to wearing the lenses consistently at night

A detailed eye exam and corneal mapping at B&VITT Eye Clinic will determine if Ortho-K is right for you or your child.

What to Expect During the Process

• Initial consultation: Your eyes will be examined and precisely measured using corneal topography.
• Lens fitting: Custom Ortho-K lenses will be designed specifically for your eyes.
• Overnight wear: Wear the lenses each night while you sleep; remove them in the morning.
• Clear vision by day: Most people begin seeing clearly within a few days to a week of consistent wear.

Results improve with regular use, and your cornea gradually holds its reshaped form longer throughout the day.

Benefits of Ortho-K

• Non-surgical and reversible
• Clear vision all day without glasses or contacts
• Safe for children and teens
• May slow down the progression of nearsightedness
• Great for sports, outdoor activities, and dry eye sufferers
• Comfortable overnight wear

Considerations & Limitations

While Ortho-K is safe and effective, it's not permanent. You must continue to wear the lenses nightly to maintain results. Potential side effects include:

• Mild discomfort during initial adjustment
• Temporary glare or halos
• Risk of infection if lenses are not properly cleaned
• Irregular results if not worn consistently

Regular follow-up visits ensure optimal results and safety.
