Being proactive. Slowing the progression.
Why Myopia Management matters:
- Myopia is increasing worldwide, especially among children.
- Higher levels of myopia are linked to greater risks of serious eye conditions later in life, including retinal detachment, glaucoma, and macular degeneration.
- Early intervention can make a meaningful difference in long-term vision outcomes.
Who may benefit from Myopia Management:
Myopia Management is typically recommended for children and adolescents with progressing nearsightedness. It may be especially beneficial for:
- Children with rapidly changing prescriptions
- Children with a family history of myopia
- Children who spend significant time on near work or digital devices
Myopia Management options may include:
- Specialty spectacle lenses designed to slow myopia progression, including the new FDA-approved Stellest™ lenses
- Specialized contact lenses created for myopia control
- Prescription eye drops used as part of a customized treatment plan
- Lifestyle guidance to support healthy visual habits
