What is Myopia Control and why is it important?
Myopia control refers to treatments and strategies aimed at slowing the progression of nearsightedness (myopia) in children and young adults. Common methods include specially designed contact lenses, glasses, atropine eye drops, and lifestyle changes like increased outdoor time. The goal is to reduce long-term risks associated with high myopia, such as retinal detachment or glaucoma.
Spectacle Lens
Hoya MiYOSMART / Essilor Stellest Package
Our myopia control spectacle lens package is designed to help manage and slow the progression of nearsightedness in children.
Contact Lenses
Soft or RGP (Ortho-K) Lenses
- Orthokeratology (Ortho-K) – Rigid lenses worn overnight to reshape the cornea temporarily.
- Soft Contact Lenses – Worn during the day, these have different focus zones to control eye growth, such as MiSight Contact Lenses
Atropine Eye Drops
Atropine Program
Atropine eye drops for myopia control involve using low-dose atropine (typically 0.01% to 0.05%) once daily. The drops help slow the elongation of the eyeball. This treatment is non-invasive, generally well-tolerated, and monitored regularly.
