Myopia Control — Slowing the Progression of Nearsightedness in Children

Myopia does not just make it harder to see at a distance. Its progression through childhood can increase the risk of eye disease in adulthood. We treat this in Raanana.

Many parents do not know that a comprehensive eye exam is recommended at age one, age three, and before first grade. Early diagnosis of myopia and taking steps to slow it down can significantly change your child's visual future.

Why does this matter?

High myopia in adulthood raises the risk of retinal detachment, glaucoma and other eye diseases. Modern myopia control methods have been shown to slow the progression of the prescription in childhood.

Our treatment methods

We fit orthokeratology lenses (Ortho-K) worn overnight, daily contact lenses designed for myopia control, and specialty spectacle lenses with clinical evidence behind them. The choice is based on age, lifestyle and the latest clinical recommendations.

Ongoing follow-up

Treatment success depends on regular monitoring. We build a personal follow-up plan for each child, including objective measurement of eye axial length over the years.
