This non-surgical approach utilizes specialized gas-permeable contact lenses worn overnight to gently reshape the cornea. The result is improved daytime vision without the need for glasses or contacts. Ortho-K not only corrects myopia but also effectively retards its progression.
Designed with multiple prescriptions for various lens zones, these lenses minimize eye strain during near tasks while concurrently slowing down myopia's advancement.
Our experienced optometrists prescribe low-dose atropine eye drops, known to be effective in impeding myopia progression in children. The dosage is customized to meet individual needs.
Our adept optometrists offer guidance on lifestyle modifications that can aid in myopia management. Recommendations may include increased outdoor activities, reduced screen time, proper lighting, and ergonomic practices to alleviate eye strain.
These revolutionary lenses, featuring D.I.M.S. (Defocus Incorporated Multiple Segments) Technology developed in collaboration with The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, address the visual defect across their entire surface using honeycomb-shaped segments to effectively slow down myopia progression.
Clinically proven to decelerate myopia progression in children of suitable age, the MiSight® 1-day lens has undergone extensive multi-year clinical studies, particularly enrolling children aged 8 to 12. It stands as the longest-running continuous soft contact lens study for myopia management.
If you experience regular headaches, this might also be an indicator of myopia. The strain on your eyes from constantly trying to focus on distant objects can lead to eye fatigue and subsequent headaches.
The inability to clearly see objects situated far away is a common sign of myopia. This difficulty may manifest in tasks like reading road signs or recognizing faces from afar.
Another well-identified sign of myopia is persistent squinting. As your eyes strain to focus on distant objects, you may instinctively squint in an attempt to sharpen your vision.

Myopia, or nearsightedness as it's also known, is becoming increasingly prevalent in today's fast-paced society, affecting millions worldwide. Myopia is an eye condition that can cause blurred vision in the distance and if ignored, can lead to severe eye health issues over time. Acknowledging the urgent need for effective myopia management, our Optometry Clinic is excited to share our in-depth Myopia Control service. Going beyond the typical eyeglasses and contact lenses, we provide a more holistic approach focused on slowing down the progression of myopia which helps to maintain clearer vision and limits associated risks.
So, you might ask, "What exactly is myopia?" In simple terms, myopia occurs when the eyeball is too long or the cornea (the clear front cover of the eye) is excessively curved. This scenario results in light focusing in front of the retina rather than directly on it, and hence, distant objects appear blurry.
While traditional eyeglasses and contact lenses can correct this blurry vision, they don't tackle the main issue of the unusual growth of the eyeball. However, our Myopia Control method does. We utilize several proven strategies to curb the progression of myopia, addressing the root cause rather than just its symptoms.
Navigating the world with blurred vision can be challenging. If you've been diagnosed with myopia, or are experiencing symptoms such as difficulty in seeing distant objects clearly, then making an appointment with our dedicated team at Eye Optical can be your first confident step towards clearer vision.
At Eye Optical, we understand that each individual's eye condition is different, and therefore, demands a unique treatment plan. We follow an innovative approach by creating custom-tailored myopia management plans instead of a one-size-fits-all solution. Our adept eye specialists conduct a detailed assessment of your visual health, consider your lifestyle requirements and use the latest optical technologies to design a personalized treatment strategy.
A part of our tailor-made approach includes educating our patients about myopia. We ensure you thoroughly understand your condition, the need for early intervention, and the potential risks if left untreated. Remember, myopia does not just cause inconvenience; it can lead to more serious eye problems over time if not addressed promptly.
