Invest in Your Child’s Eyes to Help Them Realize Their Full Potential
Especially when caught early, myopia is manageable – and not just with stronger and thicker glasses.
Recognized as a world leader, with over two million lenses on eyes, Euclid provides modern orthokeratology (Ortho-K) lens designs for proactive myopia management. Euclid Ortho-K is safe, effective, and FDA-approved.
Lenses Designed for Your Child’s Eyes
This gentle, non-surgical treatment uses specially-designed contact lenses that reduce the effect of myopia with continuous overnight wear. Similar to a custom dental retainer from an orthodontist, worn overnight to correct the alignment of teeth, Euclid lenses are made specifically for your child’s unique eyes, and they work comfortable to reshape the cornea while they sleep.
Once these overnight corneal reshaping lenses are removed in the morning, your child’s eyes naturally maintain the adjusted shape, so your child has clear vision all day, without the need for daytime corrective lenses or glasses. To maintain the effect of myopia reduction, overnight lens wear must be continued as prescribed by your doctor.
Proven, Patient-Specific Lenses with Proprietary Designs and Materials
Each Euclid lens is designed to be the perfect match for your child based on the unique shape, measurements, and prescription of their eyes, giving your child the best possible outcome.
How it Works
The best part about Euclid overnight orthokeratology treatment for myopia management is how easy it is for your child.
They just put their Euclid lenses on before they go to sleep, then the lenses comfortably work to gently reshape the cornea overnight. Because they’re only worn at night, it’s easy to supervise your child’s use of their Euclid lenses. Once the lenses are removed in the morning, your child should see clearly all day.
Who Are They For?
Euclid Ortho-K treatment is ideal for any child or young adult* with healthy eyes and the desire to help prevent their myopia from getting worse.
Myopia management contributes to a life without daytime contact lenses or glasses for nearsightedness. Parents are encouraged to discuss treatment with their doctors early. Myopia progression can begin in children as young as 6-8 years of age.
*Euclid Ortho-K is also available for adult myopes.
