The Question:
Do you offer free consults for ortho K?
Christine
No eye MD would offer a free consult for Ortho-K, because they take a LOT of time. Perhaps an OD would do that, but I doubt it.
We charge $500 for this type of appointment.
Also, why do as an adult want Ortho-K? I used to do that 30 years ago, before the laser came out. Since about a decade ago, almost no eye MD is going to TEMPORARILY WARP the cornea with a hard contact lens at night, when they can PERMANENTLY CHANGE the shape of the cornea, with the laser, which is actually SAFER than wearing an Ortho-K lens for years.
