Three groups of children who are especially at risk:

- Kids who have parents or siblings who are myopic, especially if they’re of Asian descent

We have a large range of highly modern treatment options backed by cutting-edge technology that puts us on the forefront of myopia treatment programs, including Ortho-K lenses, specialty contact lenses, and prescription eye drops specially formulated to prevent slow myopia progression in children.
