Myopia Control
At Eyemotivate Eye Care & Eyewear Gallery, we specialize in myopia control to help manage and slow the progression of nearsightedness in children and young adults. Our comprehensive approach includes advanced treatments like orthokeratology (Ortho-K), multifocal contact lenses, and atropine eye drops, designed for myopia management. These innovative solutions are tailored to reduce the progression of myopia, protecting your child’s vision and lowering the risk of serious eye conditions such as glaucoma, retinal detachment, and macular degeneration in the future.
Early intervention is key to safeguarding your child’s eye health. Schedule a myopia control consultation today to learn how our personalized treatments, including atropine therapy, can improve your child’s vision and quality of life.
We offer several specialized treatments to effectively manage myopia. Below, you’ll find more information about the advanced options we provide and how they work to slow myopia progression.
Types of Myopia Control Treatments
1. Orthokeratology (Ortho-K)
Ortho-K uses specially designed gas-permeable contact lenses worn overnight to gently reshape the cornea. This temporary reshaping corrects vision and helps control myopia progression, offering a glasses-free solution during the day.
2. Atropine Eye Drops
Low-dose atropine drops are an easy-to-use daily treatment that slows myopia progression by relaxing the eye’s focusing mechanism and reducing strain. This method is effective and well-tolerated for young patients.
3. Multifocal Contact Lenses
Multifocal contact lenses are soft lenses designed with multiple focal zones to slow the elongation of the eye while providing clear vision at various distances. They are a comfortable option for children and teens.

A Plan of Action for Parents
As a parent, it’s natural to want the best for your child’s vision and overall well-being. If you notice your child:
- Squinting frequently to see distant objects
- Holding books, tablets, or other devices very close
- Complaining of headaches or eye strain
- Experiencing difficulty seeing the board at school
… these could be signs of myopia. The sooner myopia is managed, the better the outcome for your child’s long-term eye health.
