Children who are at high risk of progressive myopia or nearsightedness (family history, early age of onset, and extended periods of near work) may benefit from treatment options that have been shown to reduce the progression of myopia.
Studies show myopia is becoming more common among children. Because persons with high myopia are at a greater risk of developing cataracts, glaucoma and myopic macular degeneration, myopia management may help preserve eye health.
Our doctors employ optical biometry to measure the length of the eye to guide individualized treatment plans for myopia management.
