Myopia can be slowed but most children are still receiving standard glasses instead of treatments proven to reduce progression by up to 70%. In Part 2, Tony Sommer joins Dr. Kerry Gelb to break down the four main myopia control treatments available today, how each one works, and what the clinical evidence actually shows about their effectiveness.
The conversation also covers the science of myopic defocus, the mechanism behind how modern contact lenses and optical devices slow eye elongation and why most practices have yet to adopt myopia management despite the evidence. A practical and clinically honest continuation of one of our most important series on children’s vision.
