For optometrists and ophthalmologists
Ortho-k fitted from stock, adjusted chairside.
VIPOK® four-curve, double reverse geometry lenses and a simple reference chart let you select, dispense and fine-tune ortho-k lenses in your own practice, with no lab calculations and no waiting on reorders.
Why practices fit VIPOK
A simpler way to start and grow an ortho-k practice
You control the fit
Choose the lens and make adjustments yourself, chairside, instead of waiting on a lab to recalculate.
Dispense the same day
An inventory set means lenses are on the shelf when the patient is in the chair.
Troubleshoot fast
Step up or down one row of the chart to change the fit. Evaluation and adjustment follow one simple method.
Predictable results
Stock lenses are individually calculated for corneal changes from center to periphery, reducing reorders and trial fittings.
Profitable to run
Pricing is built so the practice earns more over time, not just on the first case.
Support behind you
Hands-on training and technical support from a team of optometrists, ophthalmologists and lens designers.

The system
What orthokeratology is, and where VIPOK fits
Orthokeratology reduces refractive error and improves unaided vision by using rigid gas permeable (RGP) lenses to gradually reshape the cornea. Today it is also a tool for controlling myopia progression.
Four levels of ortho-k design
Since the 1960s, ortho-k lens designs have advanced in four steps. Each reaches further, and each needs more understanding to fit and troubleshoot.
Traditional
Flatter-than-base-curve fitAccelerated
Three-curve designsAdvanced
Four-curve designsXtreme · VIPOK® XC
Claim under reviewThe source gives no figure for traditional designs beyond "lower powers"; its bar is illustrative.
Lens geometry
VIPOK® and VIPOK® II are four-curve, double reverse geometry lenses: an optic zone (OZ), reverse curve (RC), alignment curve (AC) and peripheral curve (PC).
Reading the fit
Ortho-k and laser correction are not competitors
Both change the cornea to change refraction, but they serve different patients. Laser vision correction should only be performed on adults. Ortho-k's benefits to children are substantial.
A myopic child can start with ortho-k for myopia control and later choose laser correction for a more permanent change. It is up to eye care providers to offer that path.
Published studies from university research groups show orthokeratology is safe and effective. Success depends on training: practitioners need proper instruction before fitting, and patients need to learn lens care and keep up with follow-up visits.

Lens selector
Enter keratometry and the subjective sphere. The selector applies the VIPOK reference-chart method and highlights the lens code. It opens on the worked example from the fitting guide.
For approved VIPOK doctors
The reference chart and lens selector are available to licensed optometrists and ophthalmologists with an approved VIPOK account.
Rows run from A (flattest) to ZE (steepest). Moving up or down a row within a column adjusts the fit; fluorescein changes usually show only after two or more rows. If only the nightwear option is used, column 08 lenses can be dispensed directly without power adjustment. US Patent No. 6,361,169 (status to confirm).

Frequently asked questions
What is different about the VIPOK™ design and system?
Three things. First, a reference chart and inventory system for efficient fitting and dispensing. Second, the design can be fitted for day or night wear and worn more than 12 hours without tightening. Claim under review Third, the pricing structure makes the practice more profitable over time.
Where is the VIPOK™ design available?
In the United States, China, Taiwan, Malaysia and Hong Kong. The design came from fitting more than two thousand eyes, in collaboration between optometrists and ophthalmologists.
How much office space does VIPOK™ ortho-k need?
The same as normal contact lens fitting and dispensing: an examination room, a teaching room, and a waiting and file storage area.
If VIPOK™ uses stock inventory lenses, can it really be precise?
Yes. Each stock lens is individually calculated for how corneas change from center to periphery, and for the subtle differences between flat and steep corneas. Fitting accuracy is higher than most custom designs, with fewer reorders and trial fittings. It also removes errors from data transfer, calculation and measurement differences.
How do patients know they received genuine VIPOK® lenses?
Every lens dispensed by a certified VIPOK doctor is individually shrink-wrapped. Patients can ask to see the original package before taking lenses home.
