Bausch & Lomb Vision Shaping Treatment (VST)

INTRODUCING YOUR KEY TO VISUAL FREEDOM

Dr. William K. Ramsay is certified in this  procedure.

The NEW alternative to contact lenses, glasses or surgery.

Bausch & Lomb Vision Shaping Treatment (VST) is an innovative method that uses customized shaping lenses to gently correct your vision while you sleep, so you can enjoy crisp, clear vision while you're awake.  It's a safe, gentle option for both adults and children.  And it produces amazing results:  most patients see clearly without glasses or contact lenses, all day long.

HOW BAUSCH & LOMB VST™ WORKS

INTRODUCING YOUR KEY TO VISUAL FREEDOM

Bausch & Lomb Vision Shaping Treatment (VST) is an innovative method that uses customized shaping lenses to gently correct your vision while you sleep, so you can enjoy crisp, clear vision while you're awake.

 It's a safe, gentle option for both adults and children.

With Bausch & Lomb VST, you work in close partnership with your eye care professional, who will prescribe shaping lenses that are custom-fitted to the specific contour of your eyes. At night, these shaping lenses gently reshape your cornea to correct your vision while you sleep.  In the morning, you take your shaping lenses out and see clearly and crisply all day long.

WHO IT'S FOR

Bausch & Lomb VST™ effectively treats nearsightedness and astigmatism, and it's a good choice for anyone who wants to see clearly without devices or surgery.  It's perfect for people with lifestyles where glasses or contact lenses may be problematic, such as:

Athletes and others with active lifestyles
People with allergies or dry eyes
Workers who sit in front of computers all day
Those who work in a smoky environment
People (such as firefighters) whose profession requires hassle-free
visual freedom

Because Bausch & Lomb VST™ is safe and completely reversible, it's also an excellent option for people who aren't ready for, or aren't candidates for, LASIK surgery.

PERFECT FOR KIDS

With Bausch & Lomb VST™, there's no more broken glasses or lost contact lenses.  And because children wear their shaping lenses at home, it's easier to supervise proper care and cleaning to make sure their eyes stay healthy.  Plus, Bausch & Lomb VST™ fits kids' active lives -- especially those who play sports.

Because Bausch & Lomb VST™ is reversible, it gives you the freedom to help your child's vision now and the freedom to choose another option in the future.

Bausch & Lomb VST™ is ideal for many people of all ages, from children to adults.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT BAUSCH & LOMB VST™ 

I've always been told not to wear contact lenses while I sleep.  Is Bausch & Lomb VST™ safe?
Bausch & Lomb VST™ shaping lenses are made of a breathable material that allows oxygen to reach the eye, even while you sleep.  That's why Bausch & Lomb VST™ shaping lenses are approved for overnight wear.  Plus, Bausch & Lomb VST™ comes from the eye care company trusted by eye care professionals and consumers for over 150 years.

Are the shaping lenses comfortable? 

Yes.  You barely feel them working.  And because you only wear them while you sleep, you avoid discomforts sometimes associated with daytime contact lens wear -- such as dryness at the end of the day.

And when I take the shaping lenses out, I'll be able to see clearly all day?  For how long exactly? 

The treatment results are different for everyone.  But if you wear your shaping lenses as prescribed, you should get a least a full day of clear vision. 

Can I see while I'm wearing the shaping lenses? 

Yes.  But shaping lenses work differently than regular contact lenses.  Contact lenses work to immediately correct your vision to 20/20.  But shaping lenses work by gently holding a corrective position overnight.  While they're in, you'll be able to see well.  Once they're out, you'll see even better.

Can I wear them during the day? 

Even though you can wear shaping lenses during the day, their performance may differ. They are intended for overnight wear.

Are the shaping lenses hard to take care of? 

They're as easy to care for as regular contact lenses.  Simply clean and disinfect them daily, then store them in their proper lens case.  In addition, because they're usually worn while you sleep, there aren't any hassles or maintenance during the day--no adjusting, no rewetting, and no carrying lens cases or solutions. 

What should I use to take care of my Bausch & Lomb VST™ shaping lenses? 

For optimal results, use Boston® Simplus™ multi-action solution. 

At what age can kids start Bausch & Lomb VST™?

Because each child is different, there are no set age restrictions.  Talk to your eye care professional about Bausch & Lomb VST™ to see if it's right for your family.
