Does your child have difficulty seeing distant objects?

Myopia (nearsightedness) typically starts to develop in childhood and often progresses until about age 20.

Slowing the progression of Myopia is important because it may reduce the risk of developing serious eye conditions later in life such as cataracts, glaucoma, retinal detachment, and myopic maculopathy.

There are several treatment options to slow the progression of myopia.

Treatments What is it?
CRT (Corneal Refractive Therapy) Gas permeable contact lenses that
your child sleeps in at night. The
lenses reshape the curvature of your
child’s cornea temporarily to prevent
further progression of nearsightedness.
MiSight One Day Soft contact lenses that your child
wears each day just like any normal
daily contact lens. The technology in
the lenses help your child focus
differently to slow down the
progression of nearsightedness.
Atropine Drops Topical Atropine is a medicine used to
dilate your child’s pupil and
temporarily relax the eye’s focusing
mechanism to help reduce
progression on nearsightedness.

Determining a Myopia Control Plan for your child starts with a visit to your eye doctor. Schedule your appointment now.

Myopia is on the rise.

Nearsightedness is a growing concern in the US and other countries.

It is estimated that by the year 2050, roughly half of the world’s population will be affected by this eye condition.

Researchers believe the rise can be attributed to more time spent staring at screens.
