IGO lenses.

Wake up to perfect vision: Overnight vision correction with IGO lenses.

We’ve been fitting quite few people with IGO lenses recently and it never ceases to amaze me the difference it can make to someone’s quality of life – to be free of contact lenses and glasses during the day.

IGO lenses use overnight vision correction (OVC). OVC uses what we call ortho-keratology or ortho-K lenses. OVC is a way of correctly short sightness/myopia without the need for glasses, daytime contact lens wear or laser vision correction. Patients wear custom made gas permeable lenses overnight and remove the lenses in the morning. This then gives clear vision throughout the day without the need for contact lenses or glasses. Whilst the patient wears lenses overnight they re-shape the cornea which corrects the prescription. These lenses flatten the cornea, which alters the angle that light enters the eye.

OVC is ideal for people who are really sporty especially sports where contact lens wear is difficult such as surfing , kayaking etc…

IGO have now extended the prescription range for their lenses so more and more people have the option of trying OVC.
