Myopia, or nearsightedness, is one of the fastest-growing vision concerns worldwide — especially among children. While glasses and contacts can correct myopia, they don't address the underlying progression. Myopia control is a proactive approach that aims to slow the rate of eye elongation and reduce the risk of high myopia and its associated complications later in life.
We offer evidence-based myopia management strategies including orthokeratology (ortho-K) overnight lenses, specialty soft multifocal contact lenses, and low-dose atropine therapy. The right approach depends on your child's age, prescription, lifestyle, and rate of progression — and we work with families to develop a personalized plan that fits.
If your child's prescription has been increasing steadily, or if there is a family history of high myopia, we recommend scheduling a myopia consultation to explore whether intervention may help protect their long-term vision.
