MYOPIA MANAGEMENT
Myopia, commonly known as short-sightedness, is a common cause of blurred vision for distant objects. Learn more about how you can treat Myopia below.
Understanding Myopia (Short-Sightedness)
Myopia causes distant objects to appear blurred. It generally begins around age five and gradually worsens during childhood and adolescence as the eyes grow too quickly. With normal eye development, growth stabilises in the teenage years, but myopia can continue to progress into early adulthood.

MYOPIA MANAGEMENT
Understanding Myopia (Short-Sightedness) in Children
Myopia, commonly known as short-sightedness, causes blurred vision for distant objects. As myopia progresses, this blur can also affect vision at closer distances, including arm's length.
​
Typically starting around age 5, myopia worsens every few months during childhood and adolescence. It occurs when the eyes grow too quickly and elongate beyond the normal rate of growth.
​
In normal eye development, growth stabilises in the teenage years. However, in myopia, rapid and continuous eye growth persists into early adulthood, leading to ongoing deterioration of vision.
​
Traditionally, myopia has been corrected with glasses or contact lenses, which temporarily focus the eye for clear vision but do not address the underlying condition. While spectacles correct vision, they do not slow myopia progression.

At Aristone Opticians, we offer three approaches to manage myopia in children, both detailed below.
