The Rising Myopia Epidemic in Children

What is it?

Myopia, or nearsightedness, is the leading ocular condition worldwide. Currently, nearly 30% of children are myopic, making myopia the leading cause of visual impairment in our youth. Research shows that the incidence of myopia is projected to increase at an alarming rate- estimating that by the year 2050, nearly 52% of children will become nearsighted.

How does it affect vision?

Increased amounts of myopia have been shown to increase the risk of other serious ocular conditions such as: myopic maculopathy, retinal detachments, glaucoma and cataracts. Progressing even -1.00 diopter of myopia increases the risk of these conditions by 10%.

What makes children become more myopic?

We know that there is an environmental and genetic component to myopia. 70% of myopia today is based on environmental factors such as lack of outdoor time and increased near work demand. About 30% is attributed to a genetic component, meaning increased likelihood of myopia progression when two parents are myopic.

So what are the treatment options?

Myopia control is a treatment program that works to slow down the amount of nearsightedness progression by minimizing large jumps in children’s prescription. There are three treatment options: orthokeratology (ortho-K), soft multifocal contact lenses and medical intervention using atropine eye drops. The type of treatment program will depend on the patient’s prescription, age and the comfort level of his or her parent/guardian.

How do we get started?

The best way to determine if your child requires myopia control treatment is to have them come in for an eye exam on a regular basis, typically yearly or sooner if your child complains of blurry vision with their current correction. Our eye care professionals at Fine Eyewear will discuss the best option for your child and can answer any additional questions you may have. Schedule your child’s eye exam today!

SWIPE RIGHT FOR CLEAR VISION

 

Say hello to a new alternative for patients carrying multiple pairs of glasses from switching between sunglasses and reading glasses. 32°N sunglasses are the first (and only) dynamic focus lenses in which they make sunglasses and reading glasses in one single pair. They believe that glasses should adapt to the people wearing them; Not the other way around.

With 32°N sunglasses, you can look at the horizon, then swipe and effortlessly check your messages. Admire the view, swipe, and then seamlessly continue reading. Mimicking the way your eyes are used to working,  you can see what you want when you want. Same glasses, no progressives, no bifocals, no adjustment period needed.

32°N sunglasses uses DEEPOPTICS proprietary technology that dynamically corrects vision impairment using pixelated liquid crystal (LC) lenses. The lenses perform like the human eye, allowing the wearer to see what they want when they want. The LC layer creates an unlimited number of dynamic, high-quality lenses that can be changed at any moment. Even the PD can be controlled and changed so that when reading close, the PD can be adjusted slightly smaller. The 32°N Sunglasses are controlled by a swipe on the temple and can be set up through a smartphone app.
The product is expected to be available in 2022.

Until then, Fine Eyewear and Eyecare can take care of all of your eyewear needs. Stop by and check out our fine eyewear collection for your reading glasses, sunglasses and more.

Karl Lagerfeld reinterpreted “local” culture in general terms: from the traditional dress (the hanbok) to the acidic aesthetics of K Pop, the entire collection was imbued with energy and avant-garde accents. Eyewear was also among the main players at the fashion show.
