Myopia management

Slowing short-sightedness as they grow.

Myopia (short-sightedness) causes distance blur and can increase the risk of eye disease as it progresses.

Management aims to slow this progression and protect long-term eye health. With specialist lenses such as Hoya MiyoSmart and Essilor Stellest, these problems can be mitigated.

Ask our optometrist if myopia management could be suitable for your child.

Visual stress & coloured overlay assessment

Calmer, clearer reading.

Some children suffer from visual stress. Our coloured overlay assessments provide an in-depth investigation into whether an overlay will help.

Children with visual stress often notice letters move or jump, and they struggle to follow where they are in the text. A coloured overlay quietens these distractions, allowing more accurate reading with increased speed and visual comfort.

  • Letters that seem to move, jump or blur
  • Losing their place when reading
  • Discomfort or tiredness with reading
