How much pain do you feel when removing the lenses in the morning? For me it hurts like a mofo for like 10 minutes. Like ripping off a bandaid and I need to keep my eye covered and dark. Is this normal? It's hard to get a straight answer. I've added drops and solution and have tried moving the lens around before removal and that helps a tiny bit.
Hi all! I started Ortho-k Wednesday night with -8.75 in both eyes so high myopia. My goal for Ortho-K is basically to be able to work at a computer and swim and do daily activities with no contacts but wear contacts for things like driving. So far my left eye has been responding really well, IMO. I'm wearing -5.5 contacts in my left eye but I have seen zero improvement in my right eye and am still wearing -8.5s (my original lense prescription). My doc said the fit looked good when he did a preliminary check after two days but the difference in improvement between my eyes is jarring. My right eye also has alot of discharge in the morning and is basically glued shut and the lens pops off easily. My left eye is fine but the lens has a bit of an !&!*! In the morning for a few minutes after I take it off.
The doc said to give it time but I'm soooo impatient and nervous I dropped a ton of $$ odor nothing so I would love to hear from people if they've had a similar experience and their ultimate results. Thanks!!!
