Myopia, also known as nearsightedness, is a common vision problem that affects many people, especially children. If you or your child have been diagnosed with myopia, we are here to help. Our dedicated team of eye care professionals offers effective myopia control solutions to manage and slow down the progression of this condition.

Understanding Myopia

Myopia is a refractive error that causes distant objects to appear blurry while close-up objects remain clear. It occurs when the eyeball is too long or the cornea is too curved, resulting in light entering the eye and not focusing correctly on the retina. Myopia often develops during childhood and can progress throughout adolescence and early adulthood.

Why Myopia Control Matters

Controlling myopia is crucial because unmanaged myopia can lead to more severe eye conditions later in life, such as retinal detachment, glaucoma, or cataracts. By addressing myopia early on, we can significantly reduce the risk of these complications and improve long-term eye health.

Our Myopia Control Services

At Frisco Family Eye Care, we offer advanced myopia control solutions to slow down the progression of nearsightedness and reduce its impact on your daily life. Our expert optometrists will conduct a comprehensive eye examination to assess the severity of myopia and recommend the most suitable treatment plan for you or your child.

Orthokeratology (Ortho-K)

Ortho-K is a non-surgical and safe treatment that involves wearing specially designed gas-permeable contact lenses overnight. These lenses gently reshape the cornea while you sleep, providing clear vision during the day without needing glasses or contact lenses. Ortho-K is an excellent option for active children and individuals who prefer not to wear eyewear during the day.

Atropine Eye Drops

Atropine eye drops are another effective method for myopia control. These drops are applied daily, and they work by dilating the pupil and relaxing the eye's focusing mechanism. These eye drops help reduce the progression of myopia over time.
