Orthokeratology lenses: custom manufacturing and quality control at Astana Vision.
Orthokeratology (night) lenses are a high-tech solution for vision correction without surgery and without wearing glasses during the day. Their key feature is that each lens is manufactured strictly individually, based on the patient’s ocular parameters.
An individual approach is the foundation of effectiveness
Unlike standard soft contact lenses, orthokeratology lenses are never «off‑the‑shelf.»
When fitting them, the following are taken into account:
corneal shape
degree of myopia or astigmatism
tear film characteristics
patient’s age and lifestyle
Based on these data, a unique lens design is created that ensures safe and effective corneal reshaping during sleep.

The Astana Vision clinic network has its own contact lens manufacturing laboratory. This provides important advantages:
full quality control at every stage
