Care around you

Look beyond the next stronger prescription.

Myopia often starts in childhood and can progress as the eyes grow.

A management plan considers prescription history, family risk, lifestyle and the lens option most appropriate for the child.

Is this right for me?

This appointment may help if you need:

  • A new diagnosis of childhood myopia
  • A prescription changing regularly
  • A family history of short-sightedness
  • Parents comparing management options

What to expect

Clear advice, not a rushed transaction.

01

A structured myopia plan

Assessment and follow-up are shaped around the child rather than a one-size-fits-all product.

  • Prescription and risk review
  • Specialist spectacle or contact lens options
  • Lifestyle and outdoor-time guidance
  • Regular progress checks

Common questions

Before you book.

Still unsure which appointment you need? Call the team and describe what is happening.

Can myopia be cured?

Myopia cannot usually be reversed, but specialist management may help slow progression in suitable children.

Which option is best?

That depends on age, prescription, eye health, lifestyle and confidence with lenses. The optometrist will explain suitable choices.

Are reviews important?

Yes. Regular reviews help check vision, eye health, lens performance and whether the plan needs adjusting.
