Myopia Control

Myopia — nearsightedness — is rising fast in children, and every increase in prescription raises the lifetime risk of serious eye disease. Myopia management slows that progression while your child grows.

Why myopia management matters

Higher myopia is linked to greater lifetime risk of retinal detachment, glaucoma, and myopic maculopathy. The goal of treatment is to keep your child’s prescription as low as possible into adulthood.

  • Slows how quickly the prescription increases
  • Reduces lifetime risk of sight-threatening disease
  • Backed by clinical research

Our treatment options

There is no one-size-fits-all approach. After a full evaluation, we recommend the option that best fits your child’s eyes, age, and lifestyle.

  • Low-dose atropine eye drops
  • Orthokeratology (Ortho-K) overnight lenses
  • MiSight 1 Day soft contact lenses
  • Purpose-built myopia-control spectacle lenses

Ongoing monitoring

We track your child’s prescription and eye growth over time so we can measure how well treatment is working and adjust the plan as they grow.

Common Questions

Myopia Control, answered.

What causes myopia?

Both genetics and environment play a role. A family history of nearsightedness, plus lots of near work with limited time outdoors, both increase the likelihood.

Can myopia be reversed?

No treatment reverses myopia, but management can meaningfully slow how much it progresses, which lowers long-term risk.
