“You know the adage ‘seeing is believing?’ I have to admit I was skeptical when Dr. Prasnikar discussed orthokeratology for my son. He was on the tennis team. I was always concerned about the additional injury that his contacts or glasses might cause. He was concerned about the hassle of contacts and glasses.  It has been remarkable! Chris continues to have perfect daytime vision without the hassle of daytime contacts or glasses.”                                                               - Barb Mullin Chris Mullin Tennis Professional DGS class of 2005

While glasses and contacts are great, we are well aware of their irritations and limitations. Glasses slip, fall, fog, glare, distort perspective and limit peripheral vision. Contact lenses dry, dislodge, fall out, burn and blur. OrthoK solves all of these problems by eliminating the need to see with glasses & contacts. But there’s more. Children’s vision often worsens rapidly. This is called progressive myopia. We now know that glasses & contacts actually feed these changes. Yes, wearing glasses can make your child’s eyes get worse!  Thankfully orthoK is different. When used as part of a therapy program of myopia control orthoK can actually fix myopia. What makes us exceptional. Our patients must succeed. Therefore, we are committed to practicing orthokeratology at a very high level. Under the clinical direction of Dr. Anthony Prasnikar, the orthoK Center of Excellence was created within the Eyecare Center Of Dupage as an outgrowth of that commitment.

Who is a candidate?

Anyone with healthy eyes in need of vision correction should consider orthoK as an option. Addiitionally, parents concerned about developing nearsightedness, (myopia,) in their children should definitely consider orthokeratology,

How does orthoK work?

Special retainer contact lenses are designed using eye print imaging of the cornea, something like a fingerprint for the eye. Worn only during sleep, the vision retainers gently and safely reshape the cornea into a corrected shape. This eliminates the need for glasses or contacts during waking hours.
