Ortho k great for swimmer and skiers
For people who ski or swim regularly, the difficulties of finding good, prescription goggles will likely be well known.

However, ortho k lenses could be one way of helping negate the difficulties of purchasing them.

Whatever the sports goggles, ortho k could be an advantage.

As they are worn at night and gently shape the cornea while asleep, sportsmen and women can wake up with great natural vision, meaning there is no need for prescription goggles and glasses.

Not only does it mean that you don't have to carry around pesky lens solution with you all day and possibly a second set of lenses in case the worse should happen, it also means that you can pick up any goggles you want without having to worry about prescriptions.

It can also be an option for those looking to protect their eyes while on a summer holiday, with ortho k wearers not needing to worry about getting prescription sunglasses.
