MOA - Myopia Center of Excellence

Myopia, commonly known as nearsightedness, is a condition where objects appear clear up close, but are blurry or fuzzy at a distance. Myopia is already a common condition, but the rate of people developing myopia is increasing, and the condition can have a negative impact on both quality of life and long-term eye health. Myopia changes eyes permanently by elongating the eye, which in turn creates refractive errors. While glasses can correct vision issues caused by myopia, they won’t address the underlying issue or stop myopia’s progression.
Patients with myopia are also at an increased risk for health issues later in life, with myopic children being especially at risk — but there are ways to prevent the progression of myopia using a range of non-invasive, non-surgical myopia management methods. We’ve designed our MOA Myopia Management Center of Excellence around the needs of patients of all ages, with personalized treatment plans to slow or halt myopia’s progression!
