Understanding Myopia in Children
Are you concerned about your child’s increasing minus number? Myopia, or nearsightedness, can significantly impact your child’s vision and quality of life. Practical solutions are available at Nandadeep Eye Hospital if you’re tired of watching your child’s vision deteriorate.
Imagine your child enjoying clear vision without the hassle of glasses or contacts! Myopia surgery, including LASIK and SMILE, offers a revolutionary solution to correct refractive errors. These minimally invasive procedures can reshape the cornea, giving your child lasting clarity and freedom from the burden of increasing “minus” numbers.
Why Is My Child’s Minus Number Increasing?
The “minus number” or negative prescription in eyeglasses refers to myopia. If your child’s minus number keeps increasing, it could be due to factors like:
- Excessive screen time
- Lack of outdoor activities
- Genetics
- Improper lighting while reading or studying
Treatment Options for Progressive Myopia
Defocus Spectacles
These glasses correct central refractive error and provide a different focus in the surrounding peripheral zone to alter peripheral retinal defocus.
Atropine
Low-dose atropine eye drops (0.01%) have shown promise in slowing the progression of myopia, offering hope of effective ways to address it.
Outdoor Activities
Spending time outdoors can help prevent myopia as exposure to natural light, even in shaded areas, may be enough to slow the progression of myopia.
Reducing Screen Time
Prolonged screen time, especially close-up activities like reading or using digital devices, can strain the eyes and contribute to myopia progression.

FAQs - Myopia Nearsightedness
No, most treatments are painless. Routine eye examinations and fittings for glasses or contact lenses are non-invasive.
Children should have their eyes checked every year, especially if they have myopia or are showing signs of vision problems.
While some children may see improvements as they grow, many will experience some level of myopia into adulthood. Early intervention can help manage and slow its progression.
Not necessarily. With effective treatment and monitoring, it’s possible for some children to reduce their reliance on glasses as they mature.
Encouraging outdoor activities, reducing screen time, and promoting the 20-20-20 rule (looking at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds every 20 minutes) can be beneficial.
