Myopia, also known as nearsightedness, is becoming increasingly common in children. As myopia progresses, it can increase the risk of serious eye health conditions later in life, including retinal detachment, glaucoma, cataracts, and myopic macular degeneration.
At EyeGen Vision Center, we provide advanced myopia management solutions designed to help slow the progression of nearsightedness while supporting clearer, healthier vision as your child grows.
Our personalized treatment plans are tailored to your child’s lifestyle, prescription, and long-term visual needs.
Myopia management is a proactive approach to slowing the progression of nearsightedness in children and teens. Unlike traditional glasses that only correct blurry distance vision, myopia management treatments are designed to address how the eye grows over time.
Early intervention can make a meaningful difference in preserving your child’s long-term eye health and reducing dependence on stronger prescriptions in the future.

Orthokeratology, commonly called Ortho-K, uses specially designed overnight contact lenses that gently reshape the front surface of the eye while your child sleeps. In the morning, the lenses are removed, allowing your child to enjoy clear vision throughout the day without glasses or daytime contact lenses.
Ortho-K is a popular option for active children involved in sports, swimming, dance, and other activities where glasses may get in the way.

Children may not always realize their vision is changing. Common signs of myopia can include:
Squinting when looking far away
Sitting very close to screens
Complaints of blurry distance vision
Frequent headaches or eye strain
Difficulty seeing the classroom board
Holding books or devices very close
If you notice these symptoms, scheduling a comprehensive eye exam can help detect myopia early.
The earlier myopia is identified and managed, the greater the opportunity to help slow progression and protect long-term eye health.
At EyeGen Vision Center, we combine advanced diagnostic technology with personalized care to help families make informed decisions about their child’s vision.
