One of the endearing aspects of myopia management and paediatric eye care is seeing the kids grow up. Claudia first came to see us when she was just 2 years old and getting her first pair of glasses for myopia. At age 4 she became our youngest OrthoK patient, enjoying clarity of vision without glasses starting primary school. In almost the blink of an eye she’s now almost 10, wearing her OrthoK lenses every night and her myopia well managed. Changing kids’ lives is such a rewarding part of what we do in our clinic, everyday. ❤️

On this busy Saturday before the new school year begins, 9 new OrthoK patients started their night lens journey with us. These lucky kids will be able to go to school next week glasses-free!
OrthoK, short for orthokeratology, is a treatment for myopia (shortsightedness) that uses custom-designed, precision-made clear moulds to gently reshape the eye surface at night, during sleep 😴. The result is the ability to see clearly in the day without wearing glasses, while slowing the progression of myopia.
Thanks to our incredible team to make this possible! ❤️

The Myopia Clinic is dedicated to providing expert eye care to Melbourne’s children, teenagers and young adults with myopia. For the best opportunity of maintaining good eyesight and eye health in life.
With new technologies and evidence-based treatments we can now slow or even stop your child's eyesight deterioration.
What's myopia? That's the medical term for what is commonly called short-sightedness or near-sightedness. It means blurred vision in the far distance. Children with myopia may have difficulty seeing the whiteboard at school, or recognising people far away.
While most people think having short-sightedness just means wearing a pair of glasses, it's actually much more than that. Myopia occurs when the eye grows too long. Longer eyes are at significantly higher risks of developing eye disease and blindness in life, from conditions such as retinal detachment, glaucoma, myopic macular degeneration and cataracts.
Regular glasses only correct vision, masking the symptoms. Glasses do not cure myopia or slow progression. In fact, there’s new research that suggest regular glasses may even contribute to your child’s deteriorating vision.
Keeping your child's degree of myopia as low as possible with effective treatment gives them the opportunity to enjoy a lifetime of better vision, the potential for better eye health, and avoiding thick and heavy glasses.
This is called Myopia Control.
We offer a full range of myopia treatments including Orthokeratology (Ortho K corneal reshaping lenses worn at night, or OK lenses), dual-focus/multifocal soft contact lenses (MiSight, NaturalVue Multifocal), special types of spectacle lenses and medicated atropine eye drops, to reduce abnormal eye growth that causes myopia to develop and progress.
