Myopia, commonly known as nearsightedness, is a growing concern among children worldwide, including here in Canada. It's a vision condition where objects up close appear clear while those further away are blurry. This issue isn't just about thicker glasses or stronger prescriptions; it's about the potential risks of significant eye health problems in the future, such as glaucoma or retinal detachment. As a parent, the health of your child's eyes is undoubtedly a priority, and managing myopia effectively can help ensure better vision for their future.
