Myopia (nearsightedness) is a common vision condition that can lead to serious eye issues if it isn’t treated. Fortunately, at Esther Ahn Optometry in Cerritos, we offer advanced myopia management solutions to slow down its progression in both children and young adults.
One of our popular solutions is orthokeratology, also known as Ortho-K, which is a therapy that involves wearing special contact lenses overnight that gently reshape the cornea and temporarily correct myopia.
This allows the wearer to wake up with clear vision and live without glasses and contacts until the end of the day.
MiSight® is another effective myopia management solution that we offer. It’s a soft contact lens designed to slow down myopia in children aged 8 to 12. This daily disposable contact lens reduces strain on the eye and promotes healthy eye growth.
If you or your child need myopia management, contact us to book an appointment.
Myopia management is an area of eye care that uses various tools and treatments to prevent or slow your child's myopia progression. Depending upon your child's specific needs, our doctors will be able to prescribe management options that can help your child maintain better vision for longer.
If you are concerned about your child’s myopia, call today. Our team of eye care professionals will help you understand more about your child's nearsightedness and will determine whether your child is a candidate for myopia management.
