Myopia Management
Slow your child's nearsightedness.
Does your child have trouble seeing far away, or need a stronger prescription every year?
Myopia management treatments are designed to slow how quickly nearsightedness progresses, not just correct blurry vision.
Why slow it down?
Myopia usually starts in childhood and often keeps getting worse until about age 20. Slowing it matters: higher myopia raises the risk of serious eye conditions later in life, including cataracts, glaucoma and retinal detachment.
Myopia is on the rise
By 2050, researchers estimate about half the world's population will be nearsighted. More time on screens and less time outdoors are thought to play a part.
