Myopia, also known as nearsightedness, means
​your child has trouble seeing far away.

If myopia is untreated:

• Your child's vision may continue to worsen as they grow.
• The eye can become weaker, increasing the risk of serious, sight-threatening conditions later in life.

Myopia control helps protect your child’s vision by slowing how quickly nearsightedness progresses as they grow, which may help reduce the risk of vision-threatening eye conditions later in life.​

​At Insightful Eye Care, we offer MiSight contact lenses designed to help slow the progression of childhood myopia.

Nearsightedness, or myopia, is becoming increasingly common in the U.S. and around the world.

Researchers estimate that by 2050, nearly half of the global population could be affected by this condition.

This rise is thought to be linked to lifestyle changes - particularly more time spent on digital devices and less time outdoors.

The first step in managing your child's myopia is a visit to the eye doctor.
