Did you know?
Myopia in kids isn’t just about blurry distance vision, it’s a growing epidemic that affects your child’s confidence, academic performance, and long-term eye health.
Recent studies show that 1 in 3 children are now myopic, and that number is expected to rise drastically, by 2050, half the world’s population could be affected.
What is myopia?
It’s a condition where the eye grows too long, causing light to focus in front of the retina. This makes distant objects look blurry. Left unmanaged, childhood myopia can progress rapidly, increasing the risk of serious eye diseases later in life like retinal detachment, glaucoma, and macular degeneration.
But it’s not just a physical concern.
Kids with myopia may feel left out in sports, struggle in class, or develop low self-esteem due to their dependence on glasses.
The good news? There are advanced ways to manage myopia, not just correct it.
