DID YOU KNOW.....that Ortopad® patches come in three sizes?

DID YOU KNOW.....that Ortopad® patches come in three sizes?

Junior size - recommended for ages 0-2
Medium size - recommended for ages 2-4
Regular size - recommended for ages 4+

You may wonder, "How do I know if I have the right size patch?" If the adhesive is sticking to the eyebrow area, the next size up may be a better fit. If the adhesive is reaching the middle of the forehead, you could go down a size. If you are still unsure, bigger is always better - this makes sure the eye is completely occluded.

Ortopad® is designed to cover the bony area of the eye, which holds the patch away from the eye instead of directly on it. This can help make it easier for the child to tolerate the patch, because their eye can be open while patching. Ortopad's special black inlay layer helps to shield the eye from light.
