About Eye Braces Clinic (Bukit Timah)

Eye Braces Clinic was established in 2014 by founder Titus Wu and has become one of Singapore's leading eyecare practices dedicated to specialty lenses, particularly Orthokeratology (Ortho-K), also known as Eye Braces. The clinic operates from two locations, Guthrie House and Siglap Centre.

Titus's path into Ortho-K began during a preceptorship at LV Prasad Eye Institute in Hyderabad, India, where he experienced firsthand how specialty lenses can transform quality of life. He went on to train under a world-renowned Orthokeratologist specialising in lens designing and simulation software, before founding Eye Braces Clinic in 2014 to focus specifically on patient care and lens design for specialty lenses. He is joined by Consultant Juanne Lee and Associate Consultant Joyce Soen.

The clinic has treated more than 3,000 satisfied patients for Orthokeratology and PROSE lens regimens, and has produced over 10,000 pairs of customised specialty lenses for both its own patients and other practices, using 3 proprietary Eye Braces lens designs built for children, sportsmen and adults. Titus Wu is one of the very few Orthokeratologists in Singapore who is a Fellow of the International Academy of Orthokeratology and Myopia Control, and one of the few in the world who can fully customise, design and simulate Ortho-K lenses on the cornea via topography-based designing. Eye Braces Clinic is also the only practice in Singapore that uses sMap, a specialised technology for designing PROSE lenses for patients needing cornea surface and vision rehabilitation.

The clinic has published three research papers, covering the efficacy of myopia control, the accuracy of lens design and cornea parameters, and patients' quality of life after starting Eye Braces care. As an HSA-certified importer and distributor of medical devices, it works directly with top lens laboratories worldwide.

Eye Braces Clinic: Singapore's Specialty Lens and Ortho-K Experts

Eye Braces Clinic has spent over a decade establishing itself as one of Singapore's leading eyecare practices for specialty lenses, built around a treatment most people know by its nickname: Eye Braces, or Orthokeratology (Ortho-K). The clinic operates from two locations, Guthrie House and Siglap Centre, and was founded by Titus Wu in 2014.

From Hyderabad to a Singapore Clinic

Titus's path into this specialised corner of optometry began during his post-graduate training, with a preceptorship at LV Prasad Eye Institute in Hyderabad, India. It was there he saw firsthand how specialty lenses could transform someone's life — not just a lifestyle change, but a genuine change in quality of life. That experience shaped the direction of his career. For his Fellowship training, he studied under a world-renowned Orthokeratologist who focused on lens designing and simulation using specialised software, which sparked his deeper interest in Ortho-K and widened the range of patients he could treat. In 2014, he started Eye Braces Clinic specifically to prioritise patient care and lens design, rather than folding specialty lens work into a general optometry practice.

What Ortho-K Actually Does

Ortho-K, also known as Eye Braces, is a non-surgical procedure using a specially designed and fitted contact lens worn overnight. The lens gently reshapes the cornea while you sleep, so you can wake up with clear vision through the day without needing glasses or daytime contact lenses. It has shown particular promise in slowing the progression of myopia in children, which matters given that roughly 80% of learning is visual — uncorrected or worsening myopia can genuinely affect how well a child learns, not just how well they see.

Beyond Ortho-K: Corneal Rehabilitation and PROSE Lenses

Eye Braces Clinic also works with patients who have visual impairment due to corneal disease, using specialty contact lenses to help restore reading ability and correct vision that general lenses can't address. The clinic has supported more than 3,000 patients through its Orthokeratology and PROSE lens regimens, and has produced over 10,000 pairs of customised specialty lenses, both for its own patients and for other practices. It's also the only practice in Singapore using sMap, a specialised technology for designing PROSE lenses for patients who need cornea surface and vision rehabilitation.

A Practice Built on Its Own Research and Technology

What sets Eye Braces Clinic apart is the depth of its technical capability. Titus Wu is one of the very few Orthokeratologists in Singapore who is a Fellow of the International Academy of Orthokeratology and Myopia Control, and one of the few in the world able to fully customise, design and simulate Ortho-K lenses directly on a patient's cornea using topography-based designing. The clinic has published three research papers of its own, covering the efficacy of myopia control, the accuracy of lens design against cornea parameters, and patients' quality of life after starting Eye Braces care. As an HSA-certified importer and distributor of medical devices, the clinic also works directly with top lens laboratories worldwide to source and produce its lenses.

The Team and the Philosophy Behind the Care

Titus is joined by Consultant Juanne Lee, who describes her approach as treating every patient like family, and Associate Consultant Joyce Soen, who has lived with myopia herself since age 9 and now focuses on helping others avoid the hassle of glasses and the discomfort of soft lenses. Across the practice, Eye Braces Clinic says it's guided by a philosophy of honest, accurate, evidence-based advice: giving patients an accurate understanding of their eye condition based on live imagery, no hidden costs or information, well-informed recommendations grounded in the latest research alongside the optometrists' own expertise, and eye care delivered using state-of-the-art diagnostic technology and equipment throughout.
