With the use of evidence based products that include contact lenses such as MiSight and Orthokeratology (OrthoK) along with a specially designed spectacle lens from Rodenstock called MyCon we can reduce the speed of myopia progression.
Why is this important? As well as visual difficulties, high levels of myopia can cause a higher risk of ocular complications later in life such as glaucoma, retinal detachments and myopic maculopathy along with a greater dependence on spectacles and contact lenses. Controlling myopia as early as possible can reduce its progression and protect future eye health.
