At Newton Optometry Clinic, we take myopia (nearsightedness) seriously—especially when it comes to your child’s long-term eye health. With cases of myopia increasing at an alarming rate in children across Surrey, early intervention is more important than ever.
Our clinic in Surrey is a trusted leader in myopia management, offering evidence-based solutions designed to slow the progression of nearsightedness and reduce your child’s risk of developing serious eye diseases later in life.
Myopia is a condition where distant objects appear blurry while close-up vision remains clear. It typically begins in childhood and tends to worsen through adolescence. Left unchecked, progressive myopia can increase the risk of retinal detachment, glaucoma, macular degeneration, and cataracts.
Our clinic offers a range of non-surgical, clinically-proven treatments to manage myopia progression. We customize each plan based on your child’s lifestyle, prescription, and age.
These revolutionary lenses look and feel like regular glasses but include Defocus Incorporated Multiple Segments (DIMS) technology to help slow eye elongation. Myosmart lenses are ideal for kids who are not yet ready for contact lenses.
FDA-approved and child-friendly, MiSight daily disposable lenses are clinically proven to reduce myopia progression by up to 59%. They are comfortable, safe, and convenient for school-aged children.
Ortho-K, or Orthokeratology, involves custom-fitted, gas-permeable lenses worn overnight to gently reshape the cornea. Children enjoy clear, glasses-free vision during the day—perfect for sports, active play, and screen time. Ortho-K in Surrey is one of our most popular options for older kids and teens.
For younger children or those not suited for lenses, nightly use of atropine drops can effectively slow myopia progression with minimal side effects. This is often used in combination with other methods.
