Are you nearsighted? You need to read this.
Did you know that by 2020, more than 2.5 billion people will experience myopia? Also known as nearsightedness, this is one of the most common vision conditions. With myopic vision, you can see close things clearly, but struggle to focus on objects far away. In past, most patients with myopia were treated with traditional single lens prescription eyeglasses and often, their prescriptions would change between yearly or bi-yearly appointments. Now, with our lens providers at Zeiss, we are able to slow the progress of myopia in both adults and children, and may be able to slow the rate of prescription changes.
Beyond Vision is proud to carry both ZEISS MyoVision Pro and ZEISS AgeFit Junior Technology, custom lenses designed specifically for myopia management. We know that children’s vision needs, lifestyles and facial features differ greatly from adults, and Zeiss’ MyoKids lenses are built specifically for them, and is even optimized for children’s unique facial characteristics.
We also know how important it is for a child to see clearly. Changes in vision or undetected vision conditions can negatively affect a child’s learning and development. If your child is experiencing headaches, is squinting more frequently, struggling in school, or has experienced a change in mood, your child may need glasses. Children’s comprehensive eye exams performed by an optometrist are covered by Alberta Health Care. If your child is between ages 6 and 12 and has been diagnosed with myopia, your child may benefit from ZEISS AgeFit Junior Technology.
