Myopia in children

  • What is Myopia?

    Myopia happens when the eye grows too long, bending light in all the wrong ways and making distant objects blurry. And it’s on the rise among children, thanks to increased screen time and reduced outdoor play.

  • Myopia Management

    Myopia management is the use of treatments and strategies clinically proven to slow the progression of myopia. These treatments correct vision, whilst ensuring light rays are put in front of the retina, reducing the trigger for eye growth.

How do I know if my child has myopia?

Kids don’t always notice changes in their vision—but you might. If your child is struggling to see clearly, it could be myopia (short-sightedness). Here’s what to look out for: 

  • Squinting to see things in the distance 
  • Sitting too close to the TV, books, or screens 
  • Struggling at school – can’t see the board clearly 
  • Frequent headaches or tired eyes 
  • ️Rubbing their eyes a lot or blinking excessively 
  • Losing focus during tasks that need clear distance vision 

If any of these sound familiar, it’s time for an eye test. Myopia gets worse over time, so the sooner we spot it, the better we can manage it.
