How Does Ortho-K Work?
Orthokeratology uses specially designed gas-permeable contact lenses worn only while sleeping. While you sleep, the lenses gently reshape the front surface of your eye (the cornea) so you can see clearly throughout the next day without wearing glasses or regular daytime contacts.
Key Benefits of Ortho-K Lenses:
- Slowing Myopia Progression: Clinically proven to slow down worsening sight in growing children.
- Daytime Freedom: Perfect for active kids, athletes, and adults who find daytime contact lenses uncomfortable or dry.
- Reversible & Non-Surgical: Unlike LASIK, Ortho-K is 100% reversible—if you stop wearing the night lenses, your eyes naturally return to their original shape.

Yes. Many visitors, particularly from Bangladesh and West Bengal (Kolkata), come to Nepal for cataract, retina, or other eye surgery at a hospital and also want new glasses, a general eye exam, or contact lenses at the same time, before or after their procedure. Vision Concern is an optical and eye-examination clinic, not a surgical hospital, so we work alongside hospitals such as Tilganga: we are happy to see you for glasses, contact lenses, or a routine check-up either side of your surgical treatment elsewhere.
No conversion is needed. Eyeglass prescriptions from Germany, France, the UK, the USA, China, Russia, and almost every other country use the same international format, SPH (sphere), CYL (cylinder), and AXIS, measured in diopters. Our opticians read this directly, so you can bring your prescription paper, a photo of it on your phone, or simply your current glasses, and we will use the same values. If your prescription is more than a year or two old, we recommend a quick, free re-check before we make your new pair.
Yes. Above roughly 3,000 metres, UV exposure increases sharply because of the thinner atmosphere and reflection off snow, and ordinary sunglasses (category 2-3) do not block enough UV to prevent snow blindness (photokeratitis). We recommend glacier glasses or category-4 sunglasses with side shields, and can fit these with your own prescription if needed. Vision Concern offers ZEISS polarized, UV400-certified sunglasses with prescription lenses, which we can prepare before you set off on your trek.
