Spectacles.
Spectacle lenses offer the benefits of simple, accessible vision correction, with myopia control specific designs also offering robust myopia control efficacy suitable to a wide range of patients and prescriptions.
All children with myopia require spectacles, whether for full-time wear or as a back-up to contact lens wear. Spectacle lenses for myopia control have evolved from historical research on minimally effective progressive addition and less effective bifocal lenses, to new designs which employ tiny lenslets, diffusers and other optical components applied across a single vision lens. Efficacy may vary between designs. Full-time wear of myopia control specific designs is recommended to achieve the best outcomes.
