About Orthokeratology: Orthokeratology (or Ortho-K) is the practice of using a specially designed Rigid Gas Permeable (RPG) lens, worn only at night while sleeping, to provide clear vision during the day to children and adults with nearsightedness (myopia). Ortho-K has been gaining rapid acceptance worldwide, and especially in China, as an increasing number of studies show that the use of these lenses by children during their teenage growth years retards the progression of myopia.
