Founded by one of Arizona’s top eye care specialists, Mark Page; Invisalens is a brand of custom-designed retainers (overnight correction lenses) designed to manage and arrest the development of myopia or nearsightedness, especially among children. How does it work? A person with myopia has an eyeball that is too elongated or a cornea that is too curved, which is why the light entering the eye can
not focus clearly, thus, distance vision becomes blurred. The use of overnight lenses, also medically known as corneal refraction, overnight eyesight correction or Orthokeratology (Ortho-K), involves the wearing of custom-made gas permeable lenses that gently shape the cornea while a person sleeps. In effect, the wearer wakes up to much clearer eyesight, and will not have to wear corrective lens or prescription glasses for the rest of the day. This brand of pediatric eye care solution for nearsighted children is widely preferred by parents because it is FDA-approved, safe, proven effective, reversible, and non-invasive. Children can be free of glasses and more easily go swimming or practice martial arts. It is also not traumatic as compared to surgical treatment options for myopia like LASIK. With proper use and regular consultation, Invisalens can help children triumph over myopia so they can see better, dream bigger and do more. Find out more about Invisalens at www.invisalens.com.
