Corneal refractive therapy CRT

Corneal Refractive Therapy (CRT) is the most innovative method of correction of myopia and hyperopia. The method uses special lenses, having the form of reverse geometry. Special design of the lenses ensures 100 % sharp sight after 6-8-hour wearing them without any other complementary correction for 24 and more hours.

How is this effect reached?

You just put on these lenses before going to bed and… sleep all night in them!

Waking up in the morning, you take off the lenses and see well. This excellent sight remains further without lenses and glasses for 24 hours and more.

What determines such a miraculous effect of these lenses?

The lenses have two different in effect surfaces, and are selected individually by the specialists with appropriate knowledge and experience.

The external surface of the lenses is optical and refracts light actively (as usual lenses do), which enables the wearer to get 100 % sharp sight. The internal surface is complicated, and its function is to affect actively the tear film. This helps to change the surface relief of the cornea and its refractive power accordingly for the exactly required value.

When the patient takes off the lens, the effect of the change of the optical power of the cornea remains, the image is focused on the retina, and the person sees well.

Method of Corneal Refractive Therapy with the help of Paragon CRT had passed long-term clinical testing and was recognized and certified in 2002 in the USA (FDA approval) and in the countries of European Union as effective and safe method of sight correction having no age limitations (beginning with 6-year-old patients).

The very important achievement of these lenses is, that they decelerate development of myopia in children, train sight and prevent the development of squint in children suffering from hyperopia.

If the sight of your child is getting worse, it is possible to stop the progress with the help of refractive therapy.

The effectiveness of the night correction depends completely on correctness of lenses selection, which is guaranteed by high experience and qualification of the specialist.
