Services

  • Myopia Management

    Optical and pharmacological interventions, as well as lifestyle modifications, have been shown to slow down the progression of myopia in children. Implementing treatment early can reduce the risk of myopic associated eye diseases later in life.

  • Orthokeratology

    An innovative non-surgical option to correct your vision. Orthokeratology involves wearing custom contact lenses overnight to provide clear, correction-free during the day. In children and adolescents, orthokeratology has shown to slow myopia progression.

  • Specialty Contact Lenses

    Advanced contact lens designs tailored to address specific visual needs and eye conditions that conventional glasses and soft lenses may not adequately meet. These specialized options include scleral lenses, corneal gas permeable lenses, and custom soft lenses.
