What is Myopia (Nearsightedness)?
Myopia means your child can see things clearly up close but objects far away look blurry. It usually develops as children grow and their eyes become longer. Without proper care, myopia can keep getting worse each year, which may affect school performance and eye health in the future.
Why should I be concerned about myopia?
Because children are constantly growing, myopia tends to progress or get worse throughout childhood and the teenage years. The condition develops more quickly in younger children than in older children, as their eyes are growing at a faster rate. Normal eye growth occurs in the first decade of childhood, but in myopia this occurs too quickly and for too many years throughout childhood.
Myopia is concerning for two main reasons: progressively worsening vision throughout childhood, and an increased risk of eye diseases in adulthood.
Long term impacts
Higher levels of myopia are associated with higher risk of eye diseases in adulthood such as retinal detachment, myopic macular degeneration, cataracts and glaucoma. Some of these can occur in early adulthood, and some can lead to vision impairment.
Short term impactsday
Frequent changes in prescription means children with progressive myopia have unstable, changing vision between eye exams.
How to Slow Down Myopia Progression?
Book regular eye tests
Younger children may not realise or be able to communicate that there is a problem with their vision, so regular eye tests are extremely important. An eye care professional will be able to examine your child’s eyes to assess their vision and eye health.

The most effective ways to manage myopia today are special control glasses and soft contact lenses. At IHOLICS, we use ZEISS 3D measurement technology and precise optical design by our professional optician team to ensure perfect lens alignment and comfort.

Ongoing Care and Follow Up
Managing myopia requires regular care and close monitoring. At IHOLICS, we create a follow up plan every two, three, or four months depending on your child’s needs. Our opticians carefully review each measurement, check lens fitting, and make sure everything stays clean and accurate to maintain healthy vision all year.
