Paragon CRT®
The lenses are worn during sleeping hours and gently reshape the surface of the cornea. In the morning when the lenses are removed you can see clearly all day long without daytime contacts or classes.
Paragon CRT® is the first contact lens of its kind to be FDA approved for overnight wear and is a non-surgical, reversible treatment option.1
Paragon CRT® (CRT, standing for Corneal Refractive Therapy) is a non-surgical option to help correct nearsightedness. When worn overnight, Paragon CRT® contact lenses gently correct the curvature of the cornea, resulting in a corneal shape that focuses light correctly onto the retina. When removed in the morning, distant objects will come back into focus and patients can see clearly without the use of glasses or daytime contacts.

Myopia (nearsightedness) usually begins in childhood, as early as age 6. When left uncorrected, myopia can affect a child’s ability to learn and develop.5

- Blurred vision when viewing distant objects
