Myopia, or nearsightedness, is an eye condition that makes distant objects look fuzzy or out of focus. It's the most common type of refractive error — an imperfection in the eye's shape that causes blurry vision. Currently, there is no cure for myopia, but there are ways to help control how rapidly it develops or progresses. These include myopia control contact lenses and glasses, atropine eye drops and habit changes. Research shows that spending more time outdoors is good for your eyes and wellbeing. In order to prevent myopia from getting worse, encourage your child to play outdoors for 90 minutes outside every day! Setting your child up for a healthy future involves taking care of their eyes! Visit our website www.sandsclinic.com to speak with a medical professional and learn more about myopia prevention and delay of development.
