The EZM lens and system for Orthokeratology is a scientific method of fitting and predicting the results of Orthokeratology.

The EZM System consists of:

EZM Calc
  The results obtained from a corneal topographer are entered into the EZM Calc program which details precisely to the practitioner the EZM lens to   use and the visual and myopic reduction possible.
The EZM Lens
  A unique reverse geometry lens manufactured from an FDA approved material for extended wear. The unique feature of the EZM lens is a   peripheral band steeper than the base curve and includes 3 fenestrations.

The EZM Lens is designed for overnight wearing. The EZM Lens moulds and reshapes the cornea, so that normal vision without spectacles or contact lenses is possible for all waking hours.

Most of the visual changes occur rapidly in the first few days and weeks requiring frequest examination and possibly progressive lens changes. Stabilisation procedures then follow at a slower pace over the next few months. The program length varies depending upon the degree of visual error and the rate of change.

After treatment and maximum results are achieved, lenses are worn to maintain the new corneal shape. These are worn overnight. Failure to wear the retainer lens on an ongoing basis will result in the return to the pre-existing prescription.

This Orthokeratology procedure is non-invasive and is reversible
