The sleepSEE Difference
Myopia Management
For eligible children, Ortho-K may help slow myopia progression as part of a monitored care plan.
Clinical Experience
Ask a participating provider about their orthokeratology training and fitting experience.
Follow-Up
Providers monitor fit, corneal health, prescription, and visual response over time.
Candidacy Review
Age alone does not determine candidacy; prescription, corneal measurements, eye health, and maturity matter.
