CRT

Corneal Refractive Therapy (CRT) is an exciting procedure for nearsightedness (myopia). Rigid Gas Permeable Contact Lenses are worn each night while sleeping. The RGP lenses change the shape of the eye while sleeping so that during the day you can see clearly without glasses or contact lenses.

Another great benefit of this procedure is that in many cases it keeps the eyes from becoming more nearsighted. This can be very valuable during the childhood and teenage years for those whose eyes are consistently becoming more and more blurry for distance.
