Myopia Management at 10/10 Optics

Concerned about your child’s nearsightedness getting worse? We specialize in myopia control, and work closely with your family to ensure your child sees the world as clearly as they can throughout their adult life. Our team orchestrates a convenient and effective treatment program for our patients, using state-of-the-art and highly customizable solutions to make our myopia management as unique as our patients’ eyes.

While many adults benefit from myopia control, it can be most effective when started early in life, before myopia has progressed or the eye has started to stabilize. Myopia management with 10/10 Optics can help your child experience sharper vision and a higher quality of life for years to come!

What is Myopia Management?

Myopia, or nearsightedness, is a common vision error in patients of all ages that causes distant objects to appear blurry and out of focus. Myopia occurs when the eye grows longer than normal. While glasses can correct nearsightedness, the eye’s incorrect shape can worsen over time if not properly cared for — and even moderate amounts of myopia can increase the risk for various eye issues later in life.

Myopia control is valuable because it not only corrects nearsightedness now; it can also keep your child from developing high levels of nearsightedness for a clearer, brighter, and healthier future.

Myopia Control Treatment Options

Orthokeratology

Our most popular option, orthokeratology  (ortho-k) uses special contact lenses worn overnight to painlessly reshape the cornea to improve vision. These lenses are removed in the morning and help you see clearly all next day. Ortho-k replaces the need for daytime glasses or regular contact lenses without surgery and slows down the progression of myopia.

Center Distance Multifocal
Contact Lenses

Normally prescribed for patients over 40 with age-related vision problems, multifocal contact lenses can also help slow eye growth and limit myopia progression in children. They’re safe, bring clear vision at any range and reduce eye strain that causes further myopia progression!

Atropine Eye Drops

Low-dose atropine eye drops relax the eye’s focusing muscles and slow down the progression of myopia.  Our team may recommend atropine eye drops with a specified concentration for your child based on their determined risk profile to help significantly slow down the progression of myopia, often in conjunction with standard eyewear.

It’s the most amazing optical store in the NY metro area – well worth what is now a 2 hour trip from the NJ burbs for us. Ruth and her staff are simply magical in selecting the perfect frames to update our look, match our mood, or explore completely new territories. I wouldn’t trust my face to anyone else!
