Some people know from a very early age what they
want to be when they grow up. Dr. Gregg Russell is
such a person. Fascinated with how the human body
worked, he studied anatomical models as a young
child, and drew a picture of the structures of the
human eye at age ten.
That drawing, saved for posterity by his mother, hangs
in his o
ĸ
ce today.

Are contacts or glasses
interfering with
YOUR child’s game?
Paragon CRT® is a specially designed FDA-approved therapeutic contact lens worn while sleeping that reshapes the cornea without permanently altering its physiology - which is important as the eyes of children and teens are still maturing.
You wear the lenses at night and take them out in the morning. The result: clear vision the whole day whether it’s in class or in the game.
Q. Will CRT® improve my vision better than traditional glasses or contacts?
A. The treatment results should equal the vision correction provided by traditional glasses or contacts. CRT is designed to temporarily treat nearsightedness (myopia), however 1studies suggest the
possibility that wearing lenses such as CRT helps to slow or even stop the progression of nearsightedness. CRT may provide a solution that may not be available through the
use of traditional glasses or daytime contacts.
Q. How long does it take to start working?
A. Most patients see dramatic improvement in the first few days, with complete vision correction within 1-2 weeks.
Q. Is CRT safe?
A. Yes. Part of the safety profile lies in the fact if you stop wearing CRT lenses, your vision will return to it’s previous level. *In addition, no adverse events were reported during the FDA clinical trial.
*Additional safety information is available in the CRT package insert.

Dry Eye And Contact Lens Use
Contact lens wearers are particularly
predisposed to the development of dry eye, with 50-75% of wearers reporting dry eye
symptoms.*
CRT lenses are worn only while sleeping, eliminating the dryness and discomfort of daytime contacts and giving you freedom and comfort when it matters most!
If you’re one of the many individuals who experience dry eye or contact lens discomfort, CRT may be the treatment option for you! In fact, many successful CRT patients were previous soft lens wearers. If you experience dry eye, LASIK may not be an appropriate option, making Paragon CRT an excellent alternative.** CRT is an FDA approved treatment for
nearsightedness (myopia). It temporarily eliminates the need for daytime contacts or glasses and is a nonsurgical alternative for patients who prefer a less permanent treatment option.
Ask your Eye Care Professional about CRT.

provided by traditional glasses or contacts. CRT is designed to
