I am delighted to have started fitting myopia-control contact lenses. I have been very interested in the progression of myopia (short-sight) after a very dear friend lost her central vision at a young age due to myopic maculopathy. Having myopia increases the risk of developing certain eye conditions and the risk increases as the amount of short-sight increases.
Research shows that these new contact lenses slow the development of myopia. I have undergone the accreditation process and am now able to fit the lenses. The research showed that the children fitted with the lenses handled and tolerated them well.
These lenses really offer hope for the future for short-sighted children. Ring 01382 224620 to book an initial consultation and we can discuss whether these lenses would be suitable for your child.
