Myopia Control | ReVision Eye Care

Success Begins with Sight

Is your child squinting when they look at the board at school? Do they struggle with headaches? Or are they having a hard time playing sports with friends? They might have myopia.

Over 40% of Americans currently have myopia, and more children are being diagnosed every day.

Myopia, also known as nearsightedness, is an eye condition that typically develops during childhood, making objects in the distance appear blurry while close-up items remain clear. Myopia can also increase the risk of other eye diseases and conditions later in life.

Myopia control can slow the progression of your child's myopia, reducing the need for constant prescription updates and protecting their long-term vision.

To get a better idea of how we can help your child, let's start by booking an eye exam! Our team will take a closer look and take time to understand their needs.

Why Controlling Myopia Matters

Myopia can make it difficult for your child to see in school or enjoy fun games and sports with their friends. They may also be slow to develop social behaviors and could be misdiagnosed with behavioral problems.

Corrective lenses can help address your kid’s sight, but early myopia control can help prevent it from getting worse. This can help preserve your little one's vision so you can save on updating their lenses each year.

Book your child’s appointment now to test for myopia and other vision conditions.

Causes of Myopia

Although myopia is common among kids, research is still unclear on what causes it. Myopia progresses as your child grows up, with vision usually stabilizes around age 20.

People with myopia have either an eyeball that is too long or a cornea that is too curved, affecting how light focuses on the retina and causing blurry vision.

Myopia is hereditary. but too much time inside focused on near work or using screens could also contribute to myopia progression.

We recommend that parents encourage children to spend time outdoors. Studies show that time outdoors can also slow the progression of myopia in kids.

Stellest™ Lenses for Myopia Management

Stellest™ lenses are designed to provide clear vision while helping slow the progression of myopia in growing eyes. Using highly aspherical lens technology, they create a treatment zone that encourages healthier eye growth without affecting everyday vision.

Research has shown that Stellest lenses can reduce myopia progression by an average of 67% when worn as recommended over time.

Because they look and function like regular eyeglasses, Stellest lenses are an easy option for children who already wear glasses. Our team at ReVision Eye Care can determine whether they are the right fit based on your child’s prescription, age, and visual needs.

MiSight® 1 Day Contact Lenses for Daily Myopia Control

MiSight® 1 day contact lenses are daily disposable soft lenses developed specifically for children with myopia. They correct blurry distance vision while providing a treatment effect that helps reduce the progression of nearsightedness.

Clinical studies have demonstrated that MiSight lenses can slow myopia progression by an average of 59%.

Since a fresh pair is worn each day, there’s no need for cleaning solutions or overnight storage, making them a convenient choice for many families. We’ll help determine if your child is ready for contact lenses and provide guidance on safe, confident wear.

Atropine Eye Drops for Myopia Control

Low-dose atropine eye drops are a simple, non-surgical treatment that may help slow the progression of myopia in children. Typically used once each evening, these prescription drops can be an effective option for children who are not ready for contact lenses or who may benefit from combination therapy.

Research has shown that low-dose atropine can significantly reduce the rate of myopia progression in many children.

Atropine does not correct vision, so it is often used alongside glasses or contact lenses as part of a personalized myopia management plan. During your child’s evaluation, we’ll discuss whether atropine is an appropriate option based on their age, prescription, and risk factors.
