Myopia Management FAQs

What is myopia management?

Myopia management uses certain treatments and technologies to slow or even halt your child's myopia progression. Our myopia control program in Central Omaha is unique as we have the latest technology and experience to ensure your child's vision remains stable and healthy for years to come.

Is myopia management necessary?

Myopia is more than just poor vision. Childhood myopia raises the risk of developing sight-threatening eye diseases later in life, such as glaucoma, macular degeneration, and cataracts. Speak to your eye doctor about the best ways to minimize your child’s risk.

At what age does myopia (nearsightedness) usually start?

Myopia can begin as early as 6 and will usually progress until roughly age 20. The longer it progresses, and the higher the prescription, the greater your child’s risk of sight-threatening eye conditions later in life.

When should my child start myopia management?

For optimal results, myopia management should be started as soon as possible. That said, myopia control can help children and teens of all ages.

I've been with Malbar Vision for quite some time. Love how they get you scheduled for your visit and... how quickly they get you your glasses after the visit. Even though they say 2 weeks to get them back in actuality it only takes a week. Highly recommend... 78th Tower Malbar Vision

Computer IT maintenance was being done when I was leaving so the system was down and I couldn't get ... my prescription. I was promised that it would be sent to my email address as as it was back up. I've received two survey and I reminder emails this morning so clearly you have my email, but no prescription yet. I guess I just need to call.
