Why Myopia Matters
Myopia significantly increases your child’s risk for serious eye diseases in their lifetime.
Multiple studies show myopia becoming much more common in children, showing up at earlier ages and progressing more rapidly.
Understand the urgency of managing your child's myopia progression.
The higher the myopia, the greater your child’s risk for serious eye diseases in their lifetime
If your child is 12 years old, 2 out of 3 of his classmates are short-sighted.
Did you know if your child’s power is 500 degrees or more, he or she is at higher risk for serious eye diseases that can cause blindness?
Help your child see clearly and manage myopia effectively.
