Appointment Scheduling
Contact Eyesmile Opticians to book a myopia management assessment. Provide information about your or your child's medical history and any vision concerns to help the eye care professional prepare for the visit.
2
Initial Consultation
During the appointment, the eye care professional will review your or your child's medical history and discuss lifestyle factors and vision concerns. Initial tests, including visual acuity and refraction tests, will be performed to assess the degree of myopia.

Comprehensive Eye Examination and Diagnostic Tests
The assessment includes detailed diagnostic tests to evaluate the eye's health and structure. This may involve axial length measurement, corneal topography, and retinal imaging. These tests help determine the progression risk of myopia and identify any underlying conditions.
4
Results and Personalized Management Plan
After analysing the test results, the eye care professional will discuss the findings and create a personalised myopia management plan. Options may include specialised contact lenses (e.g., orthokeratology or multifocal lenses), prescription glasses, atropine eye drops, and lifestyle recommendations to reduce the progression of myopia.

Frequently Asked Questions
Eye Exam FAQ’s
1. Why is managing myopia important?
Managing myopia is crucial because high levels of myopia can increase the risk of serious eye conditions, such as retinal detachment, glaucoma, cataracts, and myopic maculopathy. Early intervention can help prevent or slow down the progression of myopia, reducing these risks.
2. What causes myopia to progress?
The progression of myopia can be influenced by genetic factors, environmental factors such as prolonged near work (e.g., reading, using digital devices), and insufficient time spent outdoors. Early onset of myopia in childhood is also associated with higher progression rates.
3.Can myopia be cured?
Currently, there is no cure for myopia. However, myopia management strategies can effectively slow down its progression, reducing the risk of high myopia and associated eye health issues.
4. Are there any side effects of myopia management treatments?
Most myopia management treatments are safe and well-tolerated. However, some side effects may include eye irritation, light sensitivity (with atropine drops), or temporary visual discomfort (with orthokeratology). Your optometrist will discuss potential side effects and how to manage them.
