Myopia Management FAQs
Myopia management uses certain treatments and technologies to slow or even halt your child's myopia progression. Our myopia control program in Lee's Summit is unique as we have the latest technology and experience to ensure your child's vision remains stable and healthy for years to come.
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.
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.
For optimal results, myopia management should be started as soon as possible. That said, myopia control can help children and teens of all ages.

We recently switched to this practice due to insurance changes, and while I was sad to leave our old... Show More eye doctor, this office made the transition easy. My daughter is profoundly deaf and communicates using ASL. Their standard practice is to use a digital/iPad interpreter, but I explained that an in-person interpreter works much better for her, especially as a young child — sign language is a visual language, and a screen interpreter is a lot harder for a kid to fully engage with.
They listened, and without any pushback, arranged an in-person interpreter for her appointment. It meant a lot that they were willing to adjust their normal process based on what actually works for my daughter, rather than just defaulting to what’s easiest for them. Great experience, and we’re glad to be patients here.
