Nonsurgical Vision Correction

See Clearly. Sleep On It.

sleepSEE is a doctor-directed Ortho-K program that uses custom prescription lenses worn overnight to create a temporary corneal shape change. Eligible patients may have clearer daytime vision with less dependence on glasses or daytime contacts.

What Is sleepSEE?

Vision Correction That Works While You Sleep

sleepSEE is a breakthrough myopia control and management system using orthokeratology (ortho-k) — specially designed contact lenses worn only at night that gently reshape your cornea while you sleep.

When you wake up, you remove the lenses and enjoy clear, natural vision all day long — without glasses, daytime contacts, or surgery.

"Think of it like a retainer for your eyes. Wear it at night, see clearly during the day."

The effect is temporary. If you stop wearing the lenses, the cornea gradually returns toward its pretreatment shape and the vision correction diminishes. Your provider can explain what to expect for your prescription.

Who Is It For?

Two Paths to Better Vision

sleepSEE serves two distinct groups with life-changing benefits for each.

Myopia Control

For Children (Ages 6+)

Childhood myopia often progresses while the eyes are growing. For eligible children, sleepSEE combines overnight Ortho-K with individualized guidance and objective monitoring to help manage that progression.

  • May help slow myopia progression in eligible children
  • No glasses during school, sports, or play
  • Reduces lifetime risk of serious eye disease
  • Builds confidence and self-esteem
Glasses-Free Freedom

For Adults (Ages 18+)

Tired of glasses fogging up? Contacts drying out? Not ready for LASIK? sleepSEE gives you clear daytime vision without any of the hassles — and none of the surgical risks.

  • Wake up seeing clearly — no morning routine
  • Perfect for sports, swimming, active lifestyles
  • No dry eyes from daytime contacts
  • Temporary effect — the cornea returns toward its pretreatment shape if wear stops
Benefits

Six Reasons Patients Choose sleepSEE

Non-Surgical

No lasers, no incisions, no permanent changes to your eyes. Just gentle overnight correction.

Prescription Care

Certain overnight Ortho-K lens systems are FDA-approved for the temporary reduction of nearsightedness.

Temporary Effect

If lens wear stops, the cornea gradually returns toward its pretreatment shape and vision correction diminishes.

Works Overnight

Wear your lenses while you sleep. Wake up, remove them, and see clearly all day.

Clear Natural Vision

No glasses. No daytime contacts. Just your own clear, unobstructed vision all day.

Myopia Management

For eligible children, overnight Ortho-K may help slow myopia progression. Individual outcomes vary.
