Myopia Management Statesville, NC

Myopia Management Statesville, NC

Myopia management is a specialized eye care service that focuses on slowing the progression of nearsightedness in children and young adults. At Vision Center of Lake Norman, we understand the importance of early intervention in myopia management. Our eye doctors in Statesville, NC are trained in the latest techniques and technologies to help slow down the progression of myopia in your child’s eyes. By doing so, we can help reduce the risk of serious eye conditions like retinal detachment, myopic macular degeneration, and glaucoma later in life.

One of the most effective ways to manage myopia is through the use of orthokeratology (ortho-k) lenses. These specialty contacts are worn overnight and gently reshape the cornea, providing clear vision during the day without the need for glasses or contacts. At Vision Center of Lake Norman, we offer a range of ortho-k lenses to suit your child’s specific needs. Our eye doctors will work with you and your child to ensure the best possible outcome.

In addition to ortho-k lenses, we also offer atropine eye drops as a myopia management option. These drops are used daily to help slow down the progression of myopia. Atropine eye drops are safe and effective, and are an excellent option for children who may not be ready for ortho-k lenses. Our eye doctors will evaluate your child’s eyes and recommend the best myopia management option for their unique situation.

At Vision Center of Lake Norman, we are committed to providing the highest level of eye care to our patients in Statesville, NC and the surrounding areas. If you are concerned about your child’s myopia progression, contact us today to schedule an appointment. Our experienced eye doctors will work with you to develop a personalized myopia management plan that fits your child’s unique needs and lifestyle.
