What is Myopia Management?

Myopia, or nearsightedness, is a common vision condition that can worsen if not adequately addressed. Myopia management focuses on reducing the rate of progression to lower the risk of long-term complications, such as retinal detachment or glaucoma.

Myopia Management Treatments

Atropine Eye Drops

Atropine eye drops are a clinically proven solution for controlling myopia progression in children. This low-dose medication helps slow the growth of the eyeball, a key factor in worsening nearsightedness.

Safe and Effective: Recommended for children with progressive myopia.
Customized Approach: Dosage tailored to each patient’s needs.

Misight and Abiliti Daily Contact Lenses

We are certified to prescribe Misight and Abiliti daily lenses explicitly designed for myopia management. These innovative lenses offer dual benefits: vision correction and control of myopia progression.

Comfortable: Daily disposable lenses suitable for children.
FDA-Approved: Proven to slow myopia progression.
Reliable Results: Backed by clinical research.

Orthokeratology (Ortho-K) Lenses

Orthokeratology, or Ortho-K, involves wearing specially designed gas-permeable contact lenses overnight. These lenses reshape the cornea, allowing clear vision without glasses or contacts during the day.

Convenient: Vision correction without daytime lenses.
Dual Benefits: Manages myopia while improving eyesight.
Ideal for All Ages: Suitable for both children and adults.

Precision Monitoring: Provides accurate data on eyeball growth.
