Vision Shaping Treatment (Ortho-K) and Your Child
Find Out if VST is Right for Your Child

Video: Ortho-K Q&A

Vision Shaping Treatment (sometimes called Ortho-K) involves specially designed lenses that are worn at night while your child sleeps.

During the night, these lenses actually reshape your cornea and your child wakes up to clear vision which lasts throughout the day without having to use glasses or contacts.

1) VST corrects nearsightedness while your child sleeps.
2) Ortho-K has been shown to slow the progress of nearsightedness.
3) Your child will not need glasses or contacts during the day.

The staff are great and I felt very comfortable. The eye doctor took time to explain everything to me. I’ve never had a doctor with more knowledge than him. I would definitely recommend Browz to my friends.
