This week is Myopia Awareness Week.
It is expected that, by the year 2050, HALF of the world’s population will be nearsighted.
Nearsightedness is more than simply a vision issue. Increased nearsightedness has been shown to increase the risk of multiple ocular conditions such as retinal detachments, glaucoma, and cataracts.
This is the reason why our doctors and staff are so passionate about myopia management. We now have treatments available to us that can help reduce the progression of myopia in our young patients.
