Myopia Management FAQs

What is myopia management?

Myopia management uses certain treatments and technologies to slow or even halt your child's myopia progression. Our myopia control program in Cross Roads is unique as we have the latest technology and experience to ensure your child's vision remains stable and healthy for years to come.

Is myopia management necessary?

Myopia is more than just poor vision. Childhood myopia raises the risk of developing sight-threatening eye diseases later in life, such as glaucoma, macular degeneration, and cataracts. Speak to your eye doctor about the best ways to minimize your child’s risk.

At what age does myopia (nearsightedness) usually start?

Myopia can begin as early as 6 and will usually progress until roughly age 20. The longer it progresses, and the higher the prescription, the greater your child’s risk of sight-threatening eye conditions later in life.

When should my child start myopia management?

For optimal results, myopia management should be started as soon as possible. That said, myopia control can help children and teens of all ages.

I was looking for an eye clinic close to my home and I found this place on google it was really easy... to make an appointment and also the staff was very friendly. The Doc was very nice and patient. The lady at the glasses section was very sweet and kind. I would definitely recommend this clinic to others who want to get their eyes checked out.

Staff is very friendly and you could get last min appointments as well. Doctors also take time to ta... lk through and not rush. Parking is not an issue. But word of caution 380 construction cause delay. So start early.

The ladies in the eyeglasses department go above and beyond. My glasses have not fit this well in 20... years. I was so impressed with their service on the first pair of glasses I bought from them that I went back for a second.

This was far and away the best eye experience I have had in 40 years. I started wearing glasses at 5... years old and have never been treated so well or had anyone work so hard on my behalf. Dr. Simmons, staff, and office manager Donna were more than amazing. I could not be happier or more grateful.

Great place! The staff were kind and helpful. The shining star for me was Dr. Simmons. She was grea... t and thorough and after the eye exam advised me that I didn’t need progressive lenses yet, which really saved me some money this time around.

This is a friendly, professional team that makes every part of the process as smooth and effortless ... as possible. The doctor was fast without being rushed, and explained everything that was happening in understandable terms.

Amazing experience!! Everyone was friendly and attentive, and the big selection of glasses is nice b... ut not overwhelming. The lady ordering the prescription and frames was very nice, and she made double sure on everything regarding insurance coverage and if the glasses fit properly. The eye doctor was easy-going, thorough, and made the exam feel quick and easy. Compared to visionworks, which I had a horrible time there a year or two ago (they got my prescription completely wrong and communication was awful), this place feels way more professional. Definitely come here for a quality experience and exam!
