🚸More children are spending time doing close up tasks, like reading, homework, tablets and phones, and are often speding less time outdoors.
🌞Time outside is important for growing eyes and research suggests it can help reduce the risk of children becoming short sighted. Looking at objects in the distance can help your eyes to relax.
📺This doesn't mean screens are bad but balance matters.
👀Regular eye tests are important, especially if your child is squinting, sitting close to screens, or stuggling to see things in the distance.

👀Spotting the signs of myopia👀

Myopia, or short sightedness, can sometimes be easy to miss, especially if your child doesn't realise their vision has changed.

Signs to look out for include
📺Sitting very close to the TV
📖Holding books or screens close
😫Complaining of headaches or tired eyes
👨‍🏫Struggling to see the board at school
🎯Losing interest in sports where distance vision matters

If you've noticed any changes, or your child's visin doesn't seem quite right, it's a good idea to book an eye test.

The sooner we spot short sightedness the sooner we can help with the best options for your child...

Myopia control contact lenses are designed for short sighted children and teenagers

They correct your child's vision while also changing the way light focuses in the eye, helping to slow the progression of myopia.
They can be a great option for children who are active, play sport or prefer not to wear glasses all day.
Children of most ages can be taught how to handle contact lenses safely.
Many myopia control contact lenses are daily disposables, so there's no cleaning or storing overnight, a fresh pair is used each day.

If you're wondering whether contact lenses could be right for your child, book in for a chat with Karen R

Myopia control glasses look and feel like everyday glasses, but the lenses are designed to do more.
The centre of the lens helps your child see clearly. Around this, the lens has special treatment zones that gently change how light focuses in the eye.
This helps send a signal to slow down the progression of short sightedness, rather than just correcting the blur.
The glasses are a good option for children who are happy to wear their glasses consistently throughout the day.
