Ways to Manage Myopia in Children

Why is myopia management vital? It's about ensuring that your child's vision remains vibrant and unburdened by nearsightedness as they develop and lessening the risk of eye diseases later in life. Controlling myopia also improves their daily quality of life and contributes to academic success.

At Broadway Vision, your child's visual well-being is one of our top priorities. We're committed to offering a range of effective myopia management treatments tailored to your child's unique needs.

Glasses and Contact Lenses for Clear Vision

Eyeglasses and contact lenses are common and effective treatments for myopia management. These options provide your child with clear and crisp vision, addressing nearsightedness and allowing them to see the world clearly.

Our team at Broadway Vision offers a wide range of fashionable eyeglasses and comfortable contact lenses to cater to your child's specific needs. We understand that comfort and style are equally important when it comes to eyewear, and our experts are here to ensure your child receives the best options to fit their unique lifestyle and preferences.


Controlling Myopia with Atropine Eye Drops

Atropine eye drops are an effective treatment option for managing myopia in children. These specialized drops slow down the progression of nearsightedness, serving as a protective shield for your child's precious vision. Our experienced team will guide you through the usage and benefits of these drops as part of our comprehensive myopia management approach.

Vision Correction with Orthokeratology

Orthokeratology, or ortho-k, represents a modern and innovative myopia management treatment. This non-surgical approach involves custom-designed, gas-permeable contact lenses that temporarily reshape the cornea. These specialized lenses work their magic overnight, gently correcting your child's vision, and are removed in the morning for clear vision during the day.

The various benefits of ortho-k make it an appealing choice for many parents.

  • Daytime Freedom from Glasses or Contacts

    Ortho-k affords your child the freedom to see clearly throughout the day without needing eyeglasses or contact lenses.

  • Slows Myopia Progression

    Research has shown that ortho-k can help curb the development of nearsightedness, potentially reducing the risk of more severe vision problems in the future.

  • Convenient and Safe

    Ortho-k lenses are a safe and versatile option for managing myopia in children of various ages. They are easy to use and maintain, providing parents peace of mind.

  • Improved Self Confidence

    Ortho-k lenses can significantly boost your child's self-confidence with clear vision without visible vision correction.

I needed advice picking out frames. All three guys had great feedback to prevent me from looking wei... rd. They picked SALT brand frames for me that I love and get complements on. For the last 6 years whenever my frames needed a tune up Warren and John were there to straighten them for free. It's an intelligent and fun place to shop for high-quality frames.

A professional, knowledgeable, and super friendly staff make this the ideal place for me to continue... to visit when replacing my glasses year after year. I've been a customer for four years ~ and have always felt completely taken care of. Warren in particular has been very helpful in helping me find frames that are perfect for my small face. Any adjustments or minor issues are addressed quickly. I've very happy with their service.

I recently purchased some contact lenses, exam & fitting. I was very impressed with the attention an... d time Dr. Kim gave through my exam. I have been wearing gas permeables for 16 years and don't like eye exams at all. If you wear gas permeables(which she explained to me) you need a custom fit(unlike soft contact lenses). This she did, she thoroughly measured and examined my eyeballs and as a result they fit and feel quite comfortable. I could tell she is passionate about her field as she took the time to answer my questions and taught me a lot about my eyes. First time ever that I feel strongly about staying with my doctor. 🙂
