Any age restriction for Ortho-k?

No, both adults and children can wear Ortho-K lenses. The youngest patient we have was 6 years old, her mother worked with her every night and after 2 months, this cute girl was able to insert and remove the lenses by herself under her mom’s supervision. Also, we have few people in their 40’s and 50’s who love the freedom that Ortho-K brings to them. One eye was corrected for distance vision and the other for reading, this is known as “monovision”.

How quickly is my vision to improve with Ortho-K?

Your vision will improve after the first night and it will improve further and stabilise over the next two weeks of Ortho-K wear because your eye shape remodel with the treatment. For higher degrees of short-sightedness and astigmatism will take longer time to achieve optimum vision.

What prescriptions are suitable for Ortho-K?

Ortho-K typically works best for myopia (short-sightedness) between -1.00 to -6.00. The amount of astigmatism reduction depends on the type of astigmatism and amount. The upper limits for astigmatism reduction are 1.50 diopters of “with-the-rule” corneal astigmatism and 0.75 diopters of “against-the-rule” corneal astigmatism. Ortho-K will not have an effect on the internal astigmatism.

MARKUS T MIO - Optometrist

MARKUS T glasses are made in Germany that are light and durable. Genuine, limited and one-of-a-kind. The glasses are made in the unusual working environment of a renovated grain distillery in Isselhorst near Gütersloh. The frames were created and manufactured with their pure design accentuating the wearer’s appearance without turning them into someone else. Each pair of glasses is special since they are made entirely by hand for you in East Westphalia. Explore the new Markus T MIO in 2022.

Markus T latest collection: Mio

Natural beauty is formed when nature and dazzling sunlight collide. The brilliance and interplay of light create this beauty. MARKUS T’s new collection is inspired by the spectrum of sunshine, which provides unique tones. Translucent colors that, depending on the mood of the light, glow spectacularly. Simultaneously, they adapt to their surroundings in an entirely natural and unobtrusive manner.

The temples’ silky titanium surface in the new color roségold contrasts with the fronts’ lightweight synthetic material, TMi. This makes for a lovely pairing. The other 2 colors are silver and black which you can match with 8 different colors for the front part.

Sustainable? Obviously… At the manufacturing facility in Gütersloh, Germany, exciting colors are created using an intelligent in-house coloration process. Nothing but pure, crystal-clear water remains in the container after the frame has gone through the pigmenting procedure. This is only one example of how the concept of sustainability guides us in our daily activities.

The MIO frame embodies everything that MARKUS T stands for. In perfect harmony, high-quality titanium and anti-allergenic lightweight synthetic material TMi. The MIO is delicate and durable at the same time, thanks to its comfortable lightweight. The MIO’s intelligent technical foundation is built on MARKUS T’s clever hinge and glazing technology. Individual highlights are created by the interaction of a well-chosen color palette and intriguing frame shapes.
