- MiSight® 1 day, the first and only FDA-approved* soft contact lens proven to slow the progression of myopia in children aged 8–12 at the start of treatment
- Overnight Ortho-K lenses that gently reshape the cornea while a child sleeps
- Custom soft multifocal lenses worn during the day
- Low-dose atropine eye drops to help regulate axial eye growth
Every plan is tailored to your child’s eyes, lifestyle, and long-term goals.
The Warning Signs of Myopia
