Nearsightedness (myopia) is more than simply needing stronger glasses. As a child's eyes become more myopic, the risk of serious eye diseases later in life increases significantly. That is why early myopia management is so important.
Our goal is not simply to help your child see clearly today, but to help protect their vision—and their future opportunities.
It also means helping your child enjoy the confidence and freedom to participate fully in school, sports, and everyday life—without being limited by their vision whenever possible. Lower levels of myopia may also help preserve more options for future vision correction, including refractive surgery if appropriate.
Every child is different. We develop an individualized treatment plan based on your child's age, prescription, eye growth, lifestyle, and risk factors. Depending on your child's needs, treatment may include Orthokeratology (Ortho-K, OK Lenses), our AOK Eye Braces® and Day AOK™ programs, low-dose atropine, multifocal contact lenses or glasses, increased outdoor time, together with regular monitoring of axial eye length.
Our goal is not simply to fit an Ortho-K lens, but to provide a comprehensive myopia management program that combines clinical expertise, thoughtful care, and long-term monitoring to help protect your child's vision throughout their years of growth.
For more than 35 years, Dr. Albert Ng and our team of doctors have been helping children and families with Orthokeratology and myopia management.
