Rose K lenses are meant for individuals with irregular cornea. The lenses are a type of specialized rigid gas-permeable (RGP) contact lenses that are designed to correct a specific type of vision impairment called "keratoconus".

Keratoconus is a condition in which the cornea becomes thin and bulges into a cone shape, causing distorted vision.

Rose K lenses are designed to be custom-fitted to the individual's cornea, providing an optimal fit and greater comfort compared to traditional RGP lenses. Additionally, the unique design of Rose K lenses helps to improve vision by neutralizing ocular aberrations caused by ectasia.

Why is Rose K Lenses important?

Rose K lenses are important for several reasons:

1. Vision correction: Rose K lenses are specifically designed to correct the vision of individuals with keratoconus.
2. Custom fit: Rose K lenses are custom-fitted to the individual's cornea, providing an optimal fit and greater comfort compared to traditional rigid gas-permeable (RGP) lenses.
3. Corneal & Scleral RGP: These materials has an advantage in providing better vision for keratoconus patients. A tear pool is created between the lens and the cornea, neutralizing the aberrations associated with ectasia.
4. Family of lenses: Different types and designs of Rose K lenses are available to cater for the different stages of keratoconus.

People who may be interested in using Rose K lenses include:

• Individuals with mild to moderate keratoconus, who are looking for an alternative to traditional RGP lenses to improve their vision
• Individuals whose condition is stabilized after other forms of treatment and wants to improve their vision
• Individuals who have had previous unsuccessful experiences with other types of contact lenses for their keratoconus

It's important to note that Rose K lenses are not suitable for everyone, and it's recommended to consult an eye care professional to determine if they are a good option for you.
