ORTHO K - SAY GOODBYE TO GLASSES, HEALTHY EYES FOR SCHOOL
As the new school year rapidly approaches, we at Hanoi French Hospital know what a busy time it can be for parents and students alike. With activities, sports new subjects and study to explore over the next 12 months it’s vital for your children to be prepared for anything. Glasses can often be a nuisance at the most inopportune moments. We have a solution.
Non-glasses methods such as Ortho-K at HFH are being adopted by many parents to provide their children with healthy and happy eyes. Students are now able to confidently and comfortably engage with learning, playing and exploring in their surroundings, more than ever before.
According to Dr. Nghiem Thi Thu Trang, an experienced doctor who has performed nearly 2,000 Ortho-K cases at the Ophthalmology Department of Hanoi French Hospital: “The Ortho-K method is like orthodontics for the eyes, and the adjustment is often compared to wearing braces. This is a very safe, effective, non-surgical method suitable for myopia up to -10.00 Diopters and astigmatism up to -3.00 Diopters. Ortho-K can be applied to all ages, but it is most suitable for children due to its outstanding advantages.”
- No glasses during the day – allowing children focus on study and be more physically active in sports
- Helps stop or reduce the progression of myopia
- Highly breathable material at night, providing enough oxygen to the eyes, ensuring corneal health
However, like other contact lenses, the risk of corneal surface infection can occur if the fitting process, lens usage, and lens quality are not up to standard.
At the Ophthalmology Department of Hanoi French Hospital, we apply strict Western standards from the lens design process to the guidance process for children, with:
- A team of internationally trained doctors, certified by the American Orthokeratology Society, and members of the Asia Pacific Ortho-K Society.
- Using Ortho-K Global OK-Vision contact lenses personalized to each individual's eye structure, manufactured in the USA, meeting FDA standards.
- Personalized lens design for each patient. Before ordering lenses, the doctor will perform an eye exam and take a corneal map to fit the lenses to the patient's eye structure. From there, the most suitable treatment method will be prescribed, and the appropriate lenses will be selected for each patient.
- Safe cleaning and lens removal procedures according to the latest recommendations from the American Ortho-K Association.
- "The gold standard" in reducing the progression of refractive errors by about 50% in children, and even better results in some children.
