Corneal refractive therapy (CRT) treatment program, this program is designed to reduce and/or eliminate your dependency on eyeglasses or contact lenses during the day by reducing or eliminating your myopia (nearsightedness) by wearing a hard contact lens at night while you sleep.
Paragon CRT therapeutic lenses will gently and non-surgically reshape your corneas as you sleep.
DURATION OF TREATMENT
You will have numerous visits as we check to see how the eye is responding and how long the vision is staying stable. Alterations to the contact lenses are common during the first month. Typically, we expect to see 90% of the vision changes within the first week of treatment and full correction within two weeks. Depending on your prescription, it may require a longer period of time to complete the process.
Thereafter, the lenses will have to be worn nightly to maintain treatment vision. If you stop wearing the lenses, the prescription will go back, likely close to your pre-treatment prescription.
PROFESSIONAL FEES
