Myopia Management

Myopia, or short-sightedness, affects your ability to see distant objects clearly. It commonly develops during childhood and can continue to progress throughout the teenage years and into adulthood.

At See Eyecare, we take a personalised approach to myopia, combining comprehensive assessment with ongoing care to protect and support your vision.

Personalised care, backed by expertise

There is no one-size-fits-all approach to myopia. Our optometrists take the time to understand your eyes, explain what we're seeing and recommend appropriate next steps.

Myopia management can involve a range of treatment options depending on your child’s eyes, age and individual needs. These may include specialised myopia control lenses such as ZEISS MyoCare, with other lens options available where appropriate, as well as soft contact lenses, Ortho-K, atropine therapy and red light therapy. Our optometrists will assess your child’s vision and recommend a tailored strategy designed to help manage myopia as their eyes continue to grow and develop.For children, teenagers and adults, our focus is simple: clearer vision now and considered care for the future.

Myopia management for children

When myopia develops during childhood, correcting blurred vision may only be part of the solution. As a child's eyes grow, myopia can progress and their prescription may become stronger over time.

Early identification allows us to monitor these changes and, where appropriate, recommend evidence-based strategies designed to help slow progression.

We consider your child's age, prescription, eye health, family history and individual needs to develop an approach that's right for them.

Myopia management for adults

Myopia doesn't stop mattering when childhood ends. Short-sightedness can continue to change into adulthood, while higher levels of myopia can require closer ongoing attention to eye health. Regular examinations allow our optometrists to monitor your prescription and eye health, while ensuring your vision correction continues to suit your lifestyle.
