Here are some resources that discuss your child’s current risk of progression, the treatments we offer, studies that have been performed on the efficacy of the treatments, and some other information on myopia management.

Myopia (nearsightedness) is where objects further away are harder to see. In the past, we wore eyeglasses to help us see better, but myopia would usually keep increasing until we reached adulthood.
Today, research shows that we can slow myopia from getting worse with special treatments. This means that your glasses might not be as thick long-term. Helping to slow down myopia may also reduce the risks of other potential eye diseases and complications down the road.

Myopia development and progression are multifactorial, with a complex interaction between genetic (non-modifiable) and environmental (modifiable) risk factors. More than 40% of Americans are myopic, and that number is increasing at an alarming rate, especially among school-age children.
