4 Simple Steps

Your Journey to Clear Vision

From first consultation to clear mornings — here's exactly what to expect.

01
Step One

Schedule a Consultation

Find a certified sleepSEE provider near you and schedule an initial consultation. Your provider will perform a comprehensive eye exam and corneal mapping to determine if you're a candidate for the sleepSEE system.

02
Step Two

Custom Lens Design

Using advanced corneal topography, your provider designs custom sleepSEE lenses specifically for your eyes. Each lens is precision-manufactured to gently reshape your cornea while you sleep.

03
Step Three

Wear at Night

Put in your sleepSEE lenses before bed. While you sleep, the lenses gently reshape your cornea as part of the myopia management protocol. The process is painless — most patients forget they're wearing them.

04
Step Four

Wake Up & See

Remove your lenses in the morning. Eligible patients may have daytime vision without glasses or daytime contacts. For children, an eye doctor may recommend Ortho-K as part of an individualized myopia-control plan.

What to Expect

Your Vision Timeline

Most patients achieve full correction within 2–4 weeks.

First nights

Getting Started

Some lens awareness is common while the cornea begins responding. Follow the provider's wear schedule and use backup correction if advised.

Early follow-up

Response Review

The provider checks vision, lens fit, corneal health, and topography, then adjusts the plan when needed.

Initial fitting

Daytime Vision

Daytime clarity and the time needed to reach it vary by prescription, lens fit, and individual response.

After fitting

Care Plan Confirmed

The provider confirms the ongoing wear and follow-up schedule based on the patient's response.

Ongoing

Monitoring

Continue prescribed wear and attend scheduled checkups so the provider can monitor vision, lens fit, and eye health.
