At iSeeU Optometry, we’re dedicated to providing solutions that help you see clearly and maintain healthy vision for years to come. If you or your child are experiencing blurry vision, it could be a sign of myopia, also known as nearsightedness. But don’t worry—we’re here to help!
What is Myopia?
Myopia is a refractive error that causes distant objects to appear blurry while close-up vision remains clear. This occurs when the eye is longer than normal or the cornea is too curved, preventing light from focusing directly on the retina.
Symptoms of Myopia
- Blurry vision when looking at distant objects (like road signs or the TV)
- Squinting to see clearly
- Eye strain or headaches after long periods of focusing on distant objects
The Myopia Control Program at iSeeU Optometry
If your child or teenager is showing signs of myopia, it’s important to take steps to slow its progression. Myopia often worsens over time, and if left untreated, it can lead to serious eye health issues. That’s where our Myopia Control Program comes in.
Our program is designed to help manage and slow the progression of myopia with safe and effective solutions:
- Orthokeratology (Ortho-K): Special overnight contact lenses that reshape the cornea, improving daytime vision without the need for glasses or regular contact lenses.
- Low-dose Atropine Eye Drops: A proven, non-invasive treatment shown to slow myopia progression in children.
- Specialized Eyewear: Glasses designed to reduce eye strain and help slow the worsening of myopia.
- Regular Eye Exams: Ongoing monitoring of your child’s eye health to ensure the treatment plan is working and adjusted as necessary.
Why Choose Our Myopia Control Program?
- Protect your child’s vision: Slow down the progression of myopia to reduce the risk of future complications like retinal damage and glaucoma.
- Non-surgical solutions: Safe, non-invasive treatments that don’t require surgery.
- Long-term vision health: By controlling myopia early, we can help maintain healthier eyes into adulthood.
