Corneal Refractive Therapy (CRT)

We welcome you into our Corneal Refractive Therapy (CRT) treatment program.  You are beginning an exciting program designed to reduce and/or eliminate your dependency on eyeglasses or contact lenses. 

The CRT lenses are worn every night while you sleep to help re-shape your cornea.  During the day, your myopia or nearsightedness is reduced and eliminated, so you are not wearing anything and still able to see! 

This treatment is ideal for all ages, especially in young children whose prescription is changing drastically from year to year or active adults who prefers not to wear anything during the day, either due to dryness or convenience. 

​Ask our doctor about Myopia Treatment and how CRT lenses will benefit you.
