(972) 378-0707

Get the Edge with Ortho-k

Orthokeratology, commonly referred to as ortho-k, is not just a solution for managing myopia but also a groundbreaking vision enhancement technique for athletes. This revolutionary method, often referred to as "overnight vision correction," has become increasingly popular among athletes who seek clear vision without the encumbrance of eyeglasses or contact lenses on the sports field.

A Clear Vision of Athletic Success

Athletes rely on their vision for optimal performance. Whether you're an aspiring basketball player, a dedicated swimmer, or a passionate soccer player, you understand that clear and unobstructed vision is paramount in sports. The ability to track moving objects, maintain spatial awareness, and make precise judgments in a fraction of a second can be the difference between success and failure.

Ortho-k offers athletes a remarkable advantage. It works by gently reshaping the cornea while you sleep, temporarily correcting your vision. When you wake up, you'll enjoy crisp and clear vision throughout the day without visual aids. For athletes, this can make a world of difference. 


The Benefits of Ortho-k for Athletes

In recent years, contact lenses have emerged as a promising avenue for myopia control:

  • Improved Performance:

    Athletes often perform at their best when they feel completely in tune with their bodies. Ortho-k enables you to focus entirely on your sport without distractions or discomfort from eyeglasses or contact lenses.

  • Peripheral Vision

    Sports activities demand excellent peripheral vision. With the benefit of ortho-k, you can experience an expanded field of view, allowing you to react quickly to your surroundings and competitors.

  • Consistency

    One of the challenges athletes face is maintaining consistent performance. Ortho-k ensures you have the same crystal-clear vision every time you step onto the field, regardless of the circumstances.

  • Reduced Risk of Eyewear-Related Injuries

    Eyeglasses and traditional contact lenses can break or dislodge during physical activities, potentially leading to eye injuries. Ortho-k eliminates this risk, allowing athletes to focus on their performance.

This sounds crazy, but Dr. Pang and his staff seriously changed my life for the better. Went in for ... a routine exam. Dr. Pang was so thorough, he realized I had a condition that would be greatly improved by prism glasses. I had no idea so many of the physical challenges I was experiencing were a result of my vision. Cannot thank them enough. The world would be a different place if all doctors were this caring and thorough.

Dr Youngblood spent a lot of time with us and even followed up with my son after the weekend to see ... how he was doing. We are very grateful for her time and attention to detail. He is doing much better thanks to her exam and expertise. The office staff was wonderful and really worked with us to find an appointment that worked for everyone. The staff member who helped us with our prescription and insurance options after the appointment was very knowledgeable and friendly. We are so impressed - thank you!

I have been a patient of Dr. Peng for 5 years. Having never worn glasses before, the process seemed ... daunting. I came to Trinity with mysterious vertigo no other doctor could address. Dr. Peng diagnosed me and soon my life became clear again! The staff at Trinity made my transition to wearing glasses smooth through their patience and kindness. Dr. Peng is unwavering in his dedication to his patients. His expertise is unmatched. Personalized service from people who obviously care and love their craft is rare today. Do not hesitate to schedule an appointment at Trinity.

I have been a patient at Trinity Eye Care for about 20 years now -- my first visit was when I was 5,... and now I'm 26! Throughout all of my visits, everyone has been so kind, attentive and just all-around helpful. This is the only place where I've gotten my night/hard contacts, day/soft contacts and glasses (prescription and blue-light). Even though I now live in another city, I still visit Plano for my annual checkups. Moreover, my parents are also still patients! I don't foresee switching providers... ever. ◡̈
