Dr. Jeffrey Michelman, Doctor of Optometry at Invision Optometric Center announces a safe, revolutionary method of eyesight improvement, Overnight Vision Correction (OVC) also known as Orthokeratology (Ortho-K). OVC treatment involves reshaping the eyes' cornea without surgery or eye discomfort, using specialized contact lenses to gently correct vision while the patient sleeps. When the lenses are removed in the morning, clear vision is retained all day without the aid of glasses or contacts.
Dr. Michelman O.D. states, “OVC is great for people with active lifestyles as the procedure offers freedom from conventional contact lenses and glasses, and the ability to see properly all day. The eye care treatment is up to 70% less expensive than most LASIK surgery procedures as well.”
Overnight Vision Correction is an FDA approved eye care procedure that is safe and effective for both children and adults. The treatment has been approved for people of any age with prescriptions up to five diopters of nearsightedness (-5.00) or astigmatism on the cornea up to –1.50. In a 9-month long clinical study for FDA approval of the OVC designs, 95% of participants achieved eyesight of 20/40 or better and 73% achieved 20/20 vision.
Invision Optometric Center is a full service optical and optometry facility. Since 1985 the company has been providing the Los Angeles area with diverse vision improvement solutions including; contact lenses, overnight vision correction, eye exams, and prescription eyeglasses.
