Myopia Control for Kids & Teens
What is Myopia?
Myopia (near-sightedness) is a growing concern among children and teens. It means distant objects appear blurry, while close-up objects remain clear. By 2050, nearly 50% of the global population is expected to be affected.
Left unmanaged, myopia can increase the risk of serious eye conditions such as:
- Retinal Detachment
- Glaucoma
- Cataracts
- Macular Degeneration
