Myopia Management

What Is Myopia (Nearsightedness) and Why Does It Matter?

More children today are becoming nearsighted (also called myopia). If your child can see up close but has trouble seeing far away, they may have myopia. This often gets worse each year if not managed early.

Experts believe less outdoor play and more screen time may be part of the reason. Genetics also play an important role in progression. The good news? There are now proven ways to slow down the progression of myopia in children.

Why Early Myopia Treatment Is Important

Myopia isn’t just about needing stronger glasses every year. As the eyes grow more nearsighted, the risk of future eye diseases—like retinal detachment, glaucoma, and early cataracts—increases too. Treating myopia early helps protect your child’s long-term vision.
