MiSight is an innovative vision rehabilitation solution designed as a soft contact lens to address children’s myopia progression (nearsightedness). MiSight 1 day® is an FDA-approved lens for children aged 8-12, slowing myopia progression and requiring 10-hour daily use, six days a week, as part of the Brilliant Futures Myopia Management Program. Regular follow-ups, an accompanying app, and a year’s supply of lenses are included in the program to monitor and support the treatment’s effectiveness. Commitment to the wear schedule and consistent check-ups are vital for optimal results.
Orthokeratology, or Ortho-K, is an advanced vision correction method that non-surgically corrects refractive errors using specially designed overnight lenses to reshape the cornea. This eliminates the daytime need for eyeglasses or contact lenses. Suitable for both adults and children with myopia or hyperopia, clear vision is typically achieved within 7-10 days. However, the effects are temporary, and discontinuation will revert the eyes to their original state. Regular follow-ups are essential for optimal results and corneal health monitoring.
Atropine drops have gained prominence in controlling myopia progression. While there are various methods to manage myopia, recent studies highlight the effectiveness of atropine, especially in concentrations of 0.01% to 0.05%. These concentrations slow nearsightedness without significantly affecting pupil size or near vision. Although the exact mechanism remains under study, its consistent results are evident. Some side effects, like photophobia, can occur but are manageable. Eyecare on the Square offers a comprehensive program for those considering this treatment.
