What Are Myopia Control Spectacle Lenses?

Myopia control spectacle lenses are specially designed lenses that help reduce the rate of myopia progression. Unlike standard lenses, these lenses incorporate specific optical designs aimed at improving vision while minimising strain on the eyes. Some designs create a controlled amount of defocus in the peripheral vision, which has been shown to slow myopia progression.

Success Rate

• Reduction in Progression: These lenses can reduce the annual increase in myopia by approximately 59-86%, helping to slow down the worsening of nearsightedness.

• Long-Term Benefits: Consistent use of myopia control lenses from an early age can lead to significantly better visual outcomes and may reduce the risk of developing high myopia in the future.

 

Guidance for Patients

• Consultation: If you or your child are experiencing changes in vision, schedule a consultation with our eye care team. We will assess your needs and determine the most suitable myopia control lens options.

• Regular Follow-Ups: It’s important to have regular check-ups to monitor the effectiveness of the lenses and make any necessary adjustments.

• Daily Wear: Myopia control spectacle lenses should be worn consistently as prescribed to achieve the best results.

• Lifestyle Adjustments: Encourage outdoor activities and limit screen time, as these habits can complement the effects of myopia control lenses.
