About The Service:

At Miller Eye Care, we offer Corneal Refractive Therapy (CRT), a non-surgical, FDA-approved treatment that can correct your vision while you sleep. CRT is an innovative solution for those who want clear vision during the day without the need for glasses or contact lenses.

How CRT Works:

CRT involves the use of specially designed gas-permeable contact lenses that gently reshape the cornea (the clear front surface of your eye) while you sleep. By temporarily altering the shape of the cornea, these lenses correct refractive errors such as myopia (nearsightedness) so that you can enjoy clear vision throughout the day without the need for corrective eyewear.

Who Can Benefit from CRT:

CRT is ideal for people with mild to moderate myopia, and it can also be effective for some cases of astigmatism. It’s a great option for individuals who are active in sports, those who find glasses or daytime contact lenses inconvenient, and even children, as it may help slow the progression of myopia.

The CRT Process:

1. Initial Consultation: During your first visit, we will conduct a thorough eye exam to determine if CRT is the right option for you. This includes measuring the curvature of your cornea using advanced corneal mapping technology.
 
2. Fitting the Lenses: If you’re a candidate for CRT, we’ll fit you with custom-designed lenses that are tailored to your cornea’s specific shape. These lenses will be worn overnight.

3. Overnight Vision Correction: As you sleep, the CRT lenses gently reshape your cornea, temporarily correcting your vision. When you wake up, you can remove the lenses and enjoy clear vision throughout the day.

4. Follow-Up Care: We’ll schedule regular follow-up visits to monitor your progress and ensure the lenses are working effectively. Adjustments can be made to the lenses if necessary to optimize your vision correction.

Benefits of CRT:

Non-Surgical: CRT is a safe, non-invasive alternative to LASIK or other refractive surgeries.
Convenient: Experience clear vision during the day without the need for glasses or contact lenses.
Reversible: Unlike surgery, the effects of CRT are temporary and reversible, making it a flexible option for vision correction.
Myopia Control: CRT may help slow down the progression of myopia in children, offering long-term benefits for their eye health.
