So there are many names for this which all mean the same thing. Contact lenses that you wear while you sleep which affect the shape of your cornea and give you back that great vision that you remember as a child. No surgery involved, but you must wear the lenses at night forever!!! I've been trying to find out where to get these lenses in Israel, and I have not yet succeeded. I believe Optic Halperin might have it at some as yet unknown location, and possibly some place called Optic Shavit or Shaviv in Givataim. It involves about a week to a month's worth of visits to the optometrist, and they have to give you different lenses each time until your eyes get stable, and then you stick with the same pair. You must clean the lenses properly since you won't notice if they're uncomfortable when you sleep and you could damage your eyes otherwise. Here's to the hope of finding a good place in Tel Aviv to do this for me, and to the hope of being able to see the world without glasses again! PS the price is around 4000 shekel from what I understand.
