What is Myopia (Nearsightedness)?
Myopia, or nearsightedness, is more than just blurry distance vision—it’s a serious issue that can worsen over time, especially in children. If your child is only given traditional eyeglasses, they’re missing out on advanced treatments designed to slow the progression of myopia and protect their long-term eye health.
A Parents' Guide to Essilor® Stellest™ Lenses For Myopia
Essilor Stellest lenses work like braces for your child’s eyes, gradually slowing the progression of myopia rather than just correcting vision. Using advanced lenslet technology, Stellest lenses guide healthy eye growth, reducing future risks of severe eye conditions like retinal detachment.
Who Can Benefit the Most from Stellest Myopia Control Eyeglass Lenses?
Stellest myopia control eyeglass lenses are an excellent solution for children with progressive myopia, particularly those aged 6 to 16. They are ideal for kids who can't use other myopia control methods like prescription eye drops or contact lenses. Discover how Stellest lenses provide a non-invasive, effective, and easy-to-use alternative for managing myopia.
