Myopia Management at Davis Hawley Eyecare
Whether your child is destined for academic, artistic, or athletic pursuits, or all of the above, keeping the progression of their myopia under control and freeing them to be without glasses as much as possible is now often an attainable goal!
The greatest success will be for children who get their eyes checked as young as possible (starting at 3 years old here at Davis Hawley Eyecare) and follow-up each and every year. Risk for myopia varies with ethnicity, with parental history of myopia, and with environmental factors such as time spent outdoors and time spent reading and looking at smartphone and computer screens.
It used to be that eye doctors would shy away from treating young children with contact lenses due to concern over causing their myopia to worsen at a pace that was faster than if just eyeglasses were worn. Today, that is no longer the case! In fact, it is just the opposite given the new devices at our disposal today!
MiSight contact lenses as well as Ortho-K lenses and topical low dose atropine treatment can quite likely “flatten the curve” of the progression of myopia in your child!
