Question: What is the worst-case scenario if we just keep using regular glasses?
Orthokeratology (Ortho-K Lens)
Answer: The worst-case is "High Myopia." When the power exceeds -6.00D, the eyeball becomes stretched so thin that the retina (the "film" of the eye) can tear or peel off. This leads to permanent blindness that surgery cannot always fix. By choosing "easy" glasses now, you are choosing a "high risk" future for your child.
