Myopia, also known as nearsightedness, is rapidly increasing among children—often beginning in early childhood and progressing through adolescence. If left unmanaged, it can lead to higher risks of serious eye conditions such as retinal detachment, glaucoma, and macular degeneration later in life. At Luminous Vision Eyecare in Coconut Creek, Dr. Zayed offers advanced myopia management solutions to help slow progression and protect your child’s long-term vision.
Early intervention is key. Managing myopia during childhood can:
Slow the progression of nearsightedness
Reduce the risk of future eye disease
Improve daily visual comfort and academic performance
Support healthy eye development
A comprehensive pediatric eye exam is the first step in effective myopia control. During your child’s visit to Luminous Vision Eyecare, Dr. Zayed will:
Measure Visual Acuity – Assess how clearly your child sees at various distances
Evaluate Refractive Error – Determine the degree of myopia and ensure an accurate prescription
Examine Eye Health – Inspect the retina and optic nerve for any underlying concerns
Based on the results, Dr. Zayed may recommend customized treatments such as orthokeratology (Ortho-K lenses), specialized soft contact lenses, Essilor® Stellest® lenses or low-dose atropine therapy to help manage progression.
We offer a range of evidence-based treatments tailored to your child’s needs:
1. Specialized Contact Lenses
