Does Your Child Need Myopia Management?
Is your child struggling to see the board at school? Do they squint their eyes while watching TV?
Or maybe they complain of headaches after screen time?
All of these are signs of nearsightedness (myopia), a common concern among kids. Nearsightedness, or myopia, is an eye condition where objects nearby are clear but objects far away are blurry. Myopia typically occurs because the eyeball grows too long during childhood. While the exact cause of myopia is still being researched, experts believe several factors contribute to its rise in children, including increased screen time, less time outdoors, and even genetics.
That’s why early detection and intervention are crucial. Myopia management can help slow the progression of nearsightedness and protect your child's vision for the future.
What is Myopia Management?
Myopia management, also referred to as myopia control, is the use of specific treatments to slow the progression of nearsightedness in children. Myopia management is important because it may help reduce the risk of vision-threatening complications associated with high myopia later in life — including glaucoma, cataracts, retinal detachment and even blindness.
