Myopia Control

In most cases, nearsightedness is simply a minor inconvenience and poses little or no risk to the health of the eye, but sometimes myopia can be severe enough to be considered a degenerative condition.

We have a solution to nearsightedness! We are proud to offer the only true way to slow the progression of nearsightedness (myopia), with no more increased glasses prescriptions each year. Ortho-k is safe, incredibly effective and the best option for correcting nearsightedness in children and adults.

Myopia has on the rise in all populations across the globe as the most common eye refractive error in both children and adults. Scientific evidence has proven that high amounts of nearsightedness are associated with glaucoma and other sight-threatening diseases. That is why at Eye Love Olympia we are trying to control myopia and limit the increase as much as possible.

How We Can Help

ORTHOKERATOLOGY

Although there is no known cure for myopia some treatments and management strategies can help restore distance vision. Also known as “corneal reshaping lenses”, ortho-k contact lenses are specially designed gas permeable contacts that are worn only at night during sleep. Ortho-k has been shown to slow myopic progression in children by 36% – 56%.

These lenses work to temporarily reverse the effects of Myopia by reshaping the eyeball while you sleep, allowing the wearer to experience clear vision the following day. This pain-free process allows clear, corrected vision without the use of contacts or glasses throughout the day!

If you have questions or concerns about ortho-k, schedule an appointment with us today. We will be able to help you determine your candidacy, costs, benefits, and risks of the process.

Everybody was amazing! Dr. Hamblet really took the time to get to know my husband and I and didn't rush our assessment like we have had in the past. She was highly intelligent and seem to truly care about our needs. Angela was amazing as well, she was able to look at our faces and pull the perfect fitting frames for both of us on the first try! Atmosphere was great. Will be back for sure!
