Myopia doesn’t just affect how clearly your child sees today—it can continue to progress as they grow 👁️✨
The good news is there are now several evidence-based treatment options designed to help **slow the progression of Myopia**, rather than just correct vision.
Depending on your child’s eyes and lifestyle, your optometrist may discuss:
👁️ **MiSight® contact lenses** (CooperVision)
Soft daily lenses designed specifically for children, shown to help slow myopia progression while providing clear vision throughout the day.
🌙 **Ortho-K (Orthokeratology)**
Specially designed overnight contact lenses that gently reshape the cornea while your child sleeps—so they can see clearly during the day without glasses or contacts.
👓 **ZEISS MyoCare lenses** (ZEISS)
Specialised spectacle lenses designed to correct vision while also supporting myopia management in children.
💧 **Low-dose atropine eye drops** (Atropine)
Prescription eye drops used in some cases to help slow the progression of myopia over time.
Every child is different, which is why a personalised approach is so important. Early intervention can make a real difference in protecting long-term vision and reducing future risk of high myopia.
If your child already wears glasses—or if you’ve noticed changes in their vision—it’s worth having a conversation about the options available. 👓💙
