Myopia management is an active approach to slowing the progression of nearsightedness — reducing both prescription burden and the risk of serious eye disease later in life.
Why It Matters
Higher myopia significantly increases the risk of retinal detachment, glaucoma, macular degeneration, and cataracts. Slowing progression during childhood produces lifelong benefits.

When to Start
The earlier the better — ideally as soon as a child's prescription is identified and progressing. Contact us to schedule a myopia management consultation.
