Contact Lenses for Myopia Control

Is Myopia Control with Contact Lenses Right for Your Child?

It can be difficult to decide which treatment is the best option when your child has myopia. Contact lenses for myopia control are one of the possible treatment options available that can help your child manage their symptoms without heavily disrupting their daily routine. 

Of course, you want to make sure that the control solutions you put in place for your child’s myopia are the right ones. We offer several management options for young people with nearsightedness—including atropine drops.

However, contact lenses for myopia control are one of the preferred options because they’re minimally invasive and help your child see during the day. The only consideration is your child’s comfort and their ability to handle the daily care needed for wearing contact lenses.

Our treatment allows you to integrate myopia control contact lenses into your child’s active lifestyle while simultaneously providing continuous myopia management.

Contact Lenses vs. Our Other Myopia Control Treatments

Myopia contact lenses are not the only source of control for nearsightedness in children. At our clinics around Atlanta, Georgia, we provide other therapies such as eye drops and corneal reshaping. However, daily wear contact lenses can often be more effective for young children when compared to other methods of myopia control, such as atropine drops or orthokeratology. 

Most kids are happy to try this daytime-only treatment when compared to the alternatives, such as eye drops or wearing corrective lenses overnight. Not only are they more convenient but kids prefer the freedom they give during the day. 

Myopia contact lenses can also fit better into your family’s routine compared to nighttime treatments which can be stressful especially when your child is tired. 

Myopia management contact lenses often provide better compliance and consistent results for active children. Young people are more likely to persevere with a treatment that fits into their lifestyle and doesn’t interfere with their routine.
