According to the National Union of Ophthalmologists of France (SNOF), myopia affects 25 to 30% of young people aged 16 to 24. However, myopia evolves until the end of the growth of the eye, which is around the age of 25 years. In addition, the greater the myopia, the greater the risk of ocular pathology. Extensive and early management of the development of myopia then becomes essential, because myopia corrected early allows young people, once adults, to maintain their initial level of myopia.
Have you thought about night lenses?
The technique has been proven for over 20 years! This is called orthokeratology, also called “night lenses”. Worn during sleep, these lenses reshape the cornea to compensate for the visual defect and allow you to see clearly during the day without wearing glasses or contact lenses.
Night lenses are considered an effective solution to curb childhood myopia (whether or not associated with astigmatism). Safe and painless, fitting night lenses also has the advantage of being non-invasive and completely reversible: wearers can choose another correction mode at any time.
No need for visual equipment during the day!
Another advantage: wearing lenses at night is the guarantee of daily freedom. Indeed, children have a clear view all day long, and are free from any visual equipment! Thus, they can practice their favorite activities without any constraint, which also makes it possible to avoid the problems of breakage or loss.
Parents are therefore reassured, because in addition to the well-being of their children, they handle their night lenses under their control, which is a guarantee of safety to avoid any risk of infection.
