Oh i agree COMPLETELY. 2 years on, this is still something I'm so so grateful I tried and it's changed how I view the world (no pun intended) and how I show up in it completely. Source of joy is such a great way to put it!!

then what did you use?

From Google biggest con seems to be: “Can Ortho-K permanently correct vision? No. It's temporary. If you stop wearing Ortho-K Lenses regularly while you sleep, your vision will return to its original state in as little as 72 hours.” I got Lasik like 15+ years ago and only now did I finally get glasses again

Hey!! Thank you so much, I'm glad you found it helpful! Yeah, the commitment definitely requires more effort and thought but the process of application and removal is quite seamless once you're used to it, and it actually helps me plan my night time a little better to avoid all nighters and excessive late nights. Some nights I have my exceptions haha, but as long as they aren't multiple nights in a row, it's ok! For me, because everything else doesn't work, the pros far outweigh the cons so i'm motivated to keep to a routine as it's definitely improved my life a lot. I hope you make a decision that works well for your lifestyle too!

Hey!! Thanks for the questions!! 1. Yes! I think it’s a good idea to go to keep track of your progress and for them to see how good the lens fits, how your corneal health is etc. the first few months require more frequent visits but now (1 year later) my visits are 4 months apart! 2. The lenses cost that much the first time around! Then after 3 years, the lenses cost $500 each ☺️ 3. After 3 years, other than getting the replacement lenses, I don’t think anything changes! Your eyesight will be likely even more stable and you can just keep wearing them at night hehe Hope that helps!!

They aren't too comfortable but as you're asleep - so what? If you are hypersenstive to any discomfort - then I'd not do it, otherwise bombs away. Like Brenda says - the difference in happiness is well, indescribable.

I actually have dry eyes and several ophthalmologists have declared me as unsafe for laser. Ortho K is the only thing that works for me, and it's also dependent on how well you insert the lenses at night and care for them etc. I'm sorry it didn't work for you but I don't think it's a good idea to be giving out potentially dangerous advice based on your personal experience and nothing else!

You’re really out there being the best friend and roommate 🥹👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

I think for me it was 4-6 weeks! It really depends on your degree you're starting with and how your cornea reacts to it. It's SUPER frustrating now (i remember) but just keep being consistent and you should see results soon!!

@@wordweed thank you!

She mentioned at 20:04 that the cost ranges from 2.6k to 3.2k, and the solutions for the lens and consultation fee are not included.

Wow! Is this covered by vision insurance?

Hi!! It’s from Eye Braces Clinic, they give you a few choices to pick from hehe!

I have to wear this every night, if not it’ll go back to its original degree in like a few days 🥲 wa if it’s permanent that’ll really be a dream come true

Ahhh🥹 THANKYOU!
