Post-LASIK corneas demand different rules!
We go all-in on Post-LASIK Ortho-K—and why so many of these cases fail before lens design ever starts.

“When a 7-year-old waved to me without her glasses for the first time, it brought tears to my eyes.”

Kids who don’t wear their myopia glasses… parents still inserting Ortho-K for teenagers… and atropine compliance all over the map!

A 7-year-old. –6.50 already.
After starting ortho-K, she walked into her first follow-up without lenses… saw me across the parking lot… and waved.
The confidence shift was instant.
This is why myopia management matters.

Canadian clinics already know how big this shift is. Are we ready in the U.S.?

Early on, very few practices were doing myopia control — especially in Minnesota — which gave some groups a head start.
The real advantage wasn’t timing, though. It was systems.

Strong OD/MD partnership. It’s not a new concept… it’s a familiar one applied earlier in a child’s journey.

With an ophthalmologist shortage coming, the future is integrative care. Optometrists + ophthalmologists working together = better patient outcomes. 👁️

The Real Cardinal Sins of Myopia Management 🔍
It’s rarely about a “botched fit.”
The biggest mistakes in myopia management are the ones we create ourselves:

We don’t let myopia get worse. 👁️
Myopia is a growing problem — one that can’t be left to just a few hundred specialists. Every practice has a role to play. www.myopiamindset.com

That “minus” on the prescription isn’t just a number — it means the eye is stretching and getting weaker.
Myopia control isn’t about lenses; it’s about protecting sight for life. 💙

Myopia = the eye growing too long, too fast, and getting weaker.
Our job is to do something about it—simply.

💡 Commoditization Is Killing Medical Value?
Soft lenses became “just contacts” — not medical devices. We can’t let that happen to Ortho-K.
They’re custom medical devices, not commodities. Words matter. 👁️
#Optometry #MyopiaManagement #OrthoK
💡 Think of MDD as the signal ortho-k, soft lenses, and glasses send to the back of the eye.
How do we measure, moderate, and optimize that signal for better myopia control?
We’ve been exploring that since 2009 — and the science keeps evolving. 👁️

Taking over a trailblazing Ortho-K practice comes with high expectations. Dr. Andrew Brauer shares how time, empathy, and personal experience helped him find his identity as a myopia management practitioner.

“They said it couldn’t be done.”
Those moments defined Dr. Joelle Holland’s career—because with the right teamwork and lens design, impossible Ortho-K fits turned into life-changing results. 💡 #OrthoK #MyopiaManagement

J has been wearing OrthoK for 20+ years. Once a week = 20/20 vision.
OrthoK = overnight lens that reshapes the eye while you sleep. Works for kids and adults at any age. Great option if you don’t like glasses or LASIK.

🧠 95% of decisions aren’t based on logic…
They’re driven by emotion.
In patient care, that means the “I’ll think about it” or “Maybe next year”

What do Vuity (a drop for presbyopia aka near vision loss) and Ortho-K night lenses for myopia have in common?
Turns out—they can both help with glare and halos at night.

Is your child always sitting close to the TV?
That’s not “just a habit.” It could be myopia—and the sooner we catch it, the better.

Kids with myopia feel more anxious—studies show it.
One study even showed 13–14 year olds with myopia had way higher trait anxiety.

👁 Nearsightedness = blurry distance vision
🧠 Myopia = an eye that’s growing too long
Not the same—and one carries long-term risk.
We specialize in slowing myopia in kids through Ortho-K & low-dose atropine.

Ortho-K lenses do more than correct vision while your child sleeps.
They also slow the progression of myopia.
