Help Slow Down Your Child’s Myopia Progression
If your child’s vision keeps getting worse every year, you’re not alone. And there is a solution. We specialize in clinically proven myopia management treatments designed to slow progression, reduce future eye health risks, and help your child see clearly and confidently.
What Is Myopia & Why Early Treatment Matters
Myopia, or nearsightedness, happens when the eye grows too long. That causes blurry distance vision and increases the risk of conditions like retinal detachment, glaucoma, and macular degeneration later in life.
Treating myopia early, especially before age 9, can help protect your child’s vision as they grow. We offer comprehensive exams and long-term care plans that support both clarity and eye health.
Signs Your Child May Need Myopia Management
-
Blurry distance vision
-
Squinting to see the board or TV
-
Sitting close to screens or books
-
Headaches or frequent eye rubbing
-
Prescription changes every year
Early diagnosis gives us the best chance to slow progression and preserve long-term vision. Our exams are child-friendly, thorough, and technology-driven.
Our Treatment Options for Myopia Control in Helotes
We offer several proven strategies to manage myopia safely and effectively:
-
MiSight® 1-day lenses: Daily disposable soft lenses approved to slow myopia progression in children.

We will help you choose the right solution for your child based on their age, prescription, and lifestyle.
Long-Term Monitoring for Lasting Results
Myopia management does not stop at the first treatment. We monitor prescription changes, eye growth, and comfort. If the treatment plan needs to shift, we adjust it together.
Our families appreciate that this is not a one-size-fits-all approach. It is real medical care built around your child’s needs.
Protect Your Child’s Vision for the Future
We do not just help your child see better today. We help protect their sight for tomorrow. If you are seeing frequent prescription changes, squinting, or other signs of myopia, it is time to take action.
