Myopia Explained


Myopia is a vision condition where nearby objects are clear, but objects far away appear blurred. This condition occurs when the shape of the eye causes light to bend incorrectly, focusing images in front of the retina instead of on it.

Myopia is common and often worsens during childhood and adolescence. Factors contributing to myopia development include genetics, environmental factors, and possibly lifestyle factors related to spending less time outdoors.

The Importance of Myopia Management


Myopia management refers to treatments or strategies to slow myopia progression in children and adolescents. If left unmanaged, high levels of myopia can increase the risk of severe eye issues later in life, such as retinal detachment, glaucoma, cataracts, and macular degeneration.
