Myopia Management FAQs

What is myopia management?

Myopia management uses certain treatments and technologies to slow or even halt your child's myopia progression. Our myopia control program in Lacey is unique as we have the latest technology and experience to ensure your child's vision remains stable and healthy for years to come.

Is myopia management necessary?

Myopia is more than just poor vision. Childhood myopia raises the risk of developing sight-threatening eye diseases later in life, such as glaucoma, macular degeneration, and cataracts. Speak to your eye doctor about the best ways to minimize your child’s risk.

At what age does myopia (nearsightedness) usually start?

Myopia can begin as early as 6 and will usually progress until roughly age 20. The longer it progresses, and the higher the prescription, the greater your child’s risk of sight-threatening eye conditions later in life.

When should my child start myopia management?

For optimal results, myopia management should be started as soon as possible. That said, myopia control can help children and teens of all ages.

Melissa helped me fix my glasses that I had stretched the arms on, so that they would sit on my face... properly. She did a great job, and it didn’t cost anything! Front desk staff is friendly and helpful, as well.

The clinic operates with exceptional organization and expertise. The front desk staff is not only ef... ficient but also genuinely kind, setting a positive tone from the moment we arrived. We were seen by an intern from Arizona, who demonstrated remarkable patience and thoroughness. Both she and Dr. Durham attentively listened to our concerns, collaboratively creating a tailored treatment plan for my daughter’s myopia. The optician brought a lively energy to the experience, showing great patience as my daughter explored various frames, ultimately helping us select the perfect pair for her small face.

- Jul. 26, 2024
All the staff here were super nice and helpful! I'm also very thankful that I was able to get an app... ointment here because I'm on Apple Health and most other clinics are booked out until September, but I was able to squeeze in an appointment in July. Their prescriptions also last for two years, or at least the one I just got lasts two years.
