Expert Myopia Management Solutions in York Region, Ontario
Is your child's vision getting worse each year? Myopia, or nearsightedness, is more than just a vision problem — it can be a progressing condition that affects children's ability to learn and engage with the world around them.
At Dr Elmalem and Associates, we're dedicated to providing expert myopia management services, focusing on innovative and effective solutions to slow the progression of myopia in children.
Why Managing Your Child's Myopia is Crucial
Myopia management is not just about correcting vision; it's about taking proactive steps to slow down the progression of myopia in children.
Without proper management, myopia can lead to higher risks of serious eye conditions later in life, such as glaucoma, cataracts, and even retinal detachment.
Our Comprehensive Myopia Management Options
At Dr Elmalem and Associates, we offer a range of myopia management options tailored to each child's needs. Our approach combines the latest research with advanced technology to provide the most effective treatment plans, including:
- Orthokeratology (Ortho-K): Patients wear these specially designed contact lenses overnight to gently reshape the cornea, temporarily correcting myopia and reducing its progression.
- Multifocal Contact Lenses and Eyeglasses: Designed to correct nearsightedness and reduce eye strain during close-up work, potentially slowing myopia progression.
- Low-Dose Atropine Eye Drops: This treatment slows myopia progression in children with minimal side effects.
