Myopia Management in Grants Pass

Because myopia can also occur with changes to your child’s cornea, corneal topography allows us to monitor these changes and how they may affect their sight.

Corneal topography can also help us detect sights of astigmatism or keratoconus. It’s also particularly useful for fitting contact lenses.

MiSight 1 Day contacts are soft contacts designed to slow myopia while correcting your child’s eyesight. These contacts use strategic defocusing techniques that signal the eye to slow down elongation.

Studies have found children using MiSight lenses have better than 20/20 vision during their visits over a 6-year period.

Multifocal contact lenses combine multiple vision prescriptions in a single lens. They can be helpful for triggering a specific response in the eye that slows myopia progression by providing clear central vision while blurring vision at the edges of the lenses.

Orthokeratology (ortho-k) lenses gently reshape the cornea while your child sleeps, providing them with all-day-long clear vision without the need for contacts or glasses.

Ortho-k lenses can help manage myopia progression by changing how light enters the eye through the cornea, which then signals the eye to slow down elongation.
