The Eye Guys’s Specialty Contact Lenses: See the World Clearly Without Eyeglasses

Many of our patients with myopia (nearsightedness) may not feel comfortable wearing eyeglasses whether they don’t like the look or wearing them is an irritation. However, glasses are not the only solution for correcting myopia.

At The Eye Guys, we’re proud to offer specialty options like Ortho-K and MiSight for patients in Sioux Falls and nearby areas like Tea and Canton. These advanced lenses are designed to manage myopia, provide clear vision, and offer comfort for a range of ages and vision conditions.

What Are Specialty Contact Lenses?

Specialty contact lenses are designed to address and correct particular vision issues in ways that eyeglasses simply can’t. At The Eye Guys, we offer both Ortho-K and MiSight lenses to provide innovative, non-surgical options for myopia control and clear vision.

Ortho-K, short for orthokeratology, involves using specially designed lenses worn overnight to reshape the cornea gently. Your vision is corrected while you sleep with many patients seeing a significant difference in their sight after the first night. This treatment is ideal for children and adults with mild to moderate myopia as it offers a non-invasive and totally reversible solution for nearsightedness. Plus, since the lenses are worn overnight, they’re perfect for active individuals who want freedom from daytime lenses.

Who Benefits from Ortho-K?

Ortho-K is an effective option for children, teens, and adults with myopia who want to slow down the progression of nearsightedness. Our team at The Eye Guys can evaluate your eyes to determine if Ortho-K is right for you.

MiSight for Myopia Management

MiSight lenses are soft daily disposable contacts specifically designed to slow the progression of myopia in children. Myopia rates are steadily on the rise with 50% of the population estimated to become myopic by 2050.

MiSight lenses not only correct vision but also help reduce the risks like glaucoma, cataracts and macular degeneration which are all associated with high myopia in the long term.

Is MiSight Right for Your Child?

MiSight lenses are a safe, comfortable option for children, allowing them to enjoy clear vision during the day while managing the progression of their myopia over time.
