Clear Vision Without Contact Lenses

Posted on 10th May 2017

Aves Optometrists are pleased to offer patients EyeDream, a vision correction therapy that provides clear, comfortable vision without the need to wear contact lenses during the day. It is a specially-designed contact lens that reverses the power of the cornea, at the front of the eye during overnight wear. Once the full effect has taken place, the eye is effectively ‘normal’ and can see clearly during the day.

EyeDream is ideal for people who are myopic (short-sight) within a low to mid power range and:

• Want clear natural vision all day – every day
• Find soft contact lenses do not fulfill the comfort demands their lifestyle places on their eyes
• Are involved in recreational and sports activities where periods without wearing contact lenses is ideal
• Prefer not to have refractive surgery

With EyeDream you will benefit from:

• Freedom from contact lenses and glasses during the day
• Very easy adaptation, only overnight lens wear required
• A comfortable, semi-permanent alternative for the correction of short sightedness
• A safe and reversible vision correction therapy without surgery

EyeDream was formerly known as Ortho-K.

EyeDream FAQ’s

Can I really just sleep and see?

Yes, once the effect is complete you simply remove the lenses each morning and can see normally. Also – and this is really clever – you will be able to see clearly with the lenses in when you wake up in the morning.

How quickly will it work?

After the first night most of the necessary correction has been achieved. Normally within a week your sight during the day will be ‘treated’ and you will no longer be reliant on glasses or contact lenses.

Is EyeDream safe?

Yes. Research and experience show that the whole process is 100% reversible. So if you decide to stop wearing EyeDream for whatever reason, the eye will return to its original shape and you will see clearly with your glasses again. This makes EyeDream an excellent alternative to laser eye surgery.

How is it possible to wear lenses overnight?

EyeDream lenses are made of one of the very highest oxygen permeable materials, Boston XO™, for maximum comfort and safety during overnight wear. The other unique benefit with EyeDream is that unlike normal lens wear the eye spends its waking hours with natural oxygen levels, uninhibited by contact lenses.

How do I try EyeDream?

Simply book an appointment with Aves Optometrists for a suitability consultation. If you are suitable, your eyes will be analysed on an eye-mapping instrument and from the data gathered, lenses ordered. Following lens collection and your first overnight wear, your practitioner will regularly monitor your progress until you only need 3-6 monthly assessments.

What will it cost?

The treatment is likely to be similar in price to wearing a pair of quality daily disposable contact lenses every day. Your lenses will need replacing every 6 months in order to be sure that they are always providing the optimum correction of your vision. We offer a monthly direct debit system of payment, for complete peace of mind.
