Myopia, also known as nearsightedness, is a common vision problem in children that can worsen as they grow. If left unchecked, it can lead to more severe complications, affecting a child’s quality of life. At Dr. Bhowal's Myopia Clinic in Siliguri, we specialize in early detection and management of myopia in children, helping prevent long-term vision issues.
What is Myopia?
Myopia occurs when the eye grows too long or the cornea is too curved, causing distant objects to appear blurry. While it is common in children, myopia can worsen as they grow older, leading to increased prescription glasses or contact lens requirements. In some cases, it can even lead to eye conditions like retinal problems or glaucoma.
Why Early Detection is Crucial?
Early intervention is key to managing myopia effectively. At Dr. Bhowal’s Myopia Clinic, we use advanced tools like the OCULUS Myopia Master for precise myopia detection and monitoring of progression. By identifying myopia early, we can implement treatment plans that slow its progression, ensuring better long-term eye health for your child.
Myopia Control Options
Our clinic offers a range of myopia control treatments tailored to each child's needs, including:
- Myopia control lenses like Zeiss MyoCare Lenses to slow down the progression of myopia.
- Orthokeratology, a non-surgical approach that uses special contact lenses to reshape the cornea overnight, helping to reduce myopia without the need for daytime lenses.
- Medical therapy to stop myopia from worsening.
Our team of experienced optometrists and ophthalmologists will work closely with you to develop the best treatment plan for your child’s eye care.
