Case Study 02
July 19, 2025
Meet Jaden ; Jaden, a bright and active 12-year-old, first visited us in 2021 with a rapidly increasing myopia prescription:
With a family history of moderate myopia and a jump from -3.25D since 2019, his parents were keen to slow the progression early.
Step 1: Stellest Lenses + Atropine Drops
To manage his myopia, Jaden’s parents chose a dual treatment approach:
This combination kept his myopia stable for the next two years.
Progression slowed, and his eyes remained healthy!
Step 2: Time for More Freedom – Ortho-K!
By 2023, Jaden’s active lifestyle meant he was ready to ditch daytime glasses. After exploring options, he decided on Ortho-K night lenses—which reshape the cornea while sleeping, giving clear vision during the day.
We assessed his eye health and found him perfectly suited for Ortho-K!
Jaden was prescribed with designed Ortho-K lenses, custom-fitted to his unique eye shape. He began overnight wear with regular follow-ups to track his progress.

Why This Matters
Key Takeaways
Ortho-K (short for Orthokeratology) lenses are special contact lenses you wear only while sleeping. They gently reshape the front surface of your eyes overnight so you wake up with clear vision—no glasses, no daytime contacts, and no surgery.
Absolutely! Ortho-K is approved and well-studied. With proper hygiene and checkups, it’s a safe, non-invasive vision correction method used around the world.
A full eye examination checks not just your vision, but also the overall health of your eyes. It helps detect eye conditions like glaucoma, cataracts, and retinal diseases, as well as early signs of systemic issues like diabetes or high blood pressure.
Your exam may include:
🅰️ Visual acuity (clarity of sight)
🔄 Refraction (lens prescription)
👁️ Slit-lamp examination
💨 Eye pressure check (for glaucoma)
🧠 Retinal imaging & Optic nerve examination
📉 Myopia control screening (if needed)
👓 Binocular Vision Assessment
🧩 Stereopsis Test (Depth Perception)
🎨 Color Vision Test
⚖️ Eye Muscle Balance Test
📏 Biometry (Axial Length Measurement)
🌈 Retinal Pigment Density Test (Macular Pigment Optical Density – MPOD)
