Myopia Management FAQs

What is myopia management?

Myopia management uses certain treatments and technologies to slow or even halt your child's myopia progression. Our myopia control program in Ladue is unique as we have the latest technology and experience to ensure your child's vision remains stable and healthy for years to come.

Is myopia management necessary?

Myopia is more than just poor vision. Childhood myopia raises the risk of developing sight-threatening eye diseases later in life, such as glaucoma, macular degeneration, and cataracts. Speak to your eye doctor about the best ways to minimize your child’s risk.

At what age does myopia (nearsightedness) usually start?

Myopia can begin as early as 6 and will usually progress until roughly age 20. The longer it progresses, and the higher the prescription, the greater your child’s risk of sight-threatening eye conditions later in life.

When should my child start myopia management?

For optimal results, myopia management should be started as soon as possible. That said, myopia control can help children and teens of all ages.

I came in and bought some new contacts and after they had arrived, I had issues filling out the reba... te for them so I called Amanda Ford and she let me come in right away to help me resolve my issue. Rebates can sometimes be an annoying process, but Amanda was very patient with me and very sweet and did an amazing job helping me. Everyone that works at Crown vision Ladue Is very sweet and helpful and I’m glad to call them my eye doctors
