New: Correct Vision without SurgeryThere's a relatively new procedure available that can correct vision problems without surgery. It's called Gentle Molding, a non-surgical procedure used to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism.
The cornea, the outer window of the eye, is reshaped while sleeping with a molding lens at night. This reshaping of the cornea corrects the vision during the daytime to allow for clear vision without the need for glasses or contact lenses.
This non-surgical procedure is very safe. It has the same risks as if wearing contact lenses, but at a lesser degree. The molding lens looks like a regular gas permeable contact lens. This makes it very safe and effective. They are comfortable to sleep with, and are easy to handle.
The cornea will maintain the clear vision throughout the day until the molding lenses are worn again for sleeping. These molding lenses are custom fit for each eye. The custom fit is based on taking computerized measurements of the cornea and the exact prescription.
