Myopia (nearsightedness) is more than just blurry distance vision—it’s a progressive condition where the eye continues to grow over time. Slowing this progression is critical to reducing longterm risks like retinal disease, glaucoma, and early cataracts.
We offer advanced, FDA-authorized treatments designed to both correct vision and slow myopia progression.
Stellest® Lenses (Glasses Option)
What Are Stellest Lenses?
Stellest lenses are specialty eyeglass lenses designed to slow the progression of myopia in children while providing clear, everyday vision.
They look like regular glasses but use advanced optical technology to help control how the eye grows.
How Do Stellest Lenses Work?
Stellest lenses feature:
- A clear central zone for sharp vision
- 1,000+ microscopic lenslets arranged in rings
- Technology that creates a “myopia control signal” to slow eye growth
This design helps reduce the stimulus that causes myopia to worsen over time.
Benefits of Stellest Lenses
- Non-invasive (no contact lenses needed)
- Easy for children to wear full-time
- Looks and feels like regular glasses
- Clinically proven to slow myopia progression
- Great for younger children or first-time treatment
Who Are They Best For?
- Children are not ready for contact lenses
- Families wanting a low-maintenance option
- Kids are comfortable wearing glasses daily.
MiSight® 1 Day Contact Lenses
What Are MiSight Lenses?
MiSight lenses are daily disposable soft contact lenses specifically designed to slow myopia progression in children.
They are worn during the day and discarded nightly—no cleaning required.
How Do MiSight Lenses Work?
MiSight lenses use dual-focus optical zones:
- One zone corrects blurry vision
- The other helps reduce eye growth signals
This combination allows children to see clearly while actively managing myopia.
Benefits of MiSight Lenses
- Freedom from glasses
- Daily disposable (clean, convenient, hygienic)
- FDA-approved for myopia control
- Ideal for active lifestyles and sports
- Proven to slow myopia progression
Who Are They Best For?
- Children are comfortable with contact lenses
- Active kids (sports, dance, etc.)
- Families wanting a glasses-free option
Stellest vs. MiSight: Which is Better?
Both options are clinically proven and highly effective—the right choice depends on your child’s lifestyle and preferences.
Key Differences:
| Feature | Stellest | MiSight |
|---|---|---|
| Type | Glasses | Contact lenses |
| Maintenance | Very low | Daily handling |
| Lifestyle | Simple, consistent | Active, glasses-free |
| Best For | Younger children | Older/more responsible kids |
Clinical studies show comparable results in slowing myopia progression, with both options significantly reducing eye growth over time.
