Myopia Management in Peoria, AZ

Is Your Child's Eyeglass Prescription Getting Worse Every Year?

Many parents believe that a stronger prescription every year is just a normal part of growing up. It isn't.

Nearsightedness (myopia) occurs when a child’s eye grows too long from front to back. Left unchecked, progressive myopia can lead to high myopia. This significantly increases the risk of serious, sight-threatening conditions later in life, including:

  • Glaucoma
  • Cataracts
  • Macular degeneration
  • Retinal detachment


At Eye Studio Peoria, we use advanced pediatric optometry technology to slow down this elongation and safeguard your child's long-term vision.

The Solutions

​​​​​​​

Our Proven Myopia Management Treatments in Peoria

Every child's eyes and lifestyle are unique. We custom-tailor our treatment programs using the top three clinically proven myopia control methods available today.

MiSight® 1-Day Contact Lenses

  • What it is: The first FDA-approved soft contact lenses designed specifically to slow the progression of myopia in children.
  • How it works: These daily disposable lenses correct their vision while simultaneously creating an optical signal that tells the eye to stop growing too long.
  • Best for: Active kids, athletes, and children who prefer not to wear glasses. Daily disposables mean zero cleaning and maximum hygiene.

Essilor® Stellest® Lenses

  • What it is: Cutting-edge spectacle lenses that look and feel exactly like regular eyeglasses.
  • How it works: Utilizing H.A.L.O. (Highly Aspherical Lenslet Target) technology, these lenses create a volume of non-focused light in front of the retina. This slows down the signal for the eye to elongate.
  • Best for: Children who prefer glasses over contacts, or younger kids who are not yet ready to handle contact lenses.

Low-Dose Atropine Therapy

  • What it is: Simple, prescription eye drops administered once daily at bedtime.
  • How it works: Clinical studies show that low-concentration atropine drops safely and effectively slow down corneal and axial length growth in myopic children.
  • Best for: Younger children, or as a combined therapy alongside Stellest glasses for maximum health and vision protection.
