Myopia Control

Myopia Control in Santa Monica, CA | Golden State

If your child’s nearsightedness is getting worse every year, that’s not just an inconvenience of needing new glasses — myopia that progresses significantly in childhood is linked to higher risk of eye conditions later in life. Myopia control is about slowing that progression down, not just correcting it after the fact.

We use proven approaches — including specialty contact lenses, atropine therapy, and specific lens designs — chosen based on your child’s age, prescription, and lifestyle. This isn’t a one-size treatment; we build the plan around what actually works for your child.

Worth watching for: - Prescription increasing noticeably each year - Squinting at distant objects like the whiteboard or street signs - A family history of high myopia.

​​​​​​​The earlier we start managing progression, the more effective it tends to be — this is a conversation worth having well before your child’s prescription climbs into the double digits.

Dry Eye Treatment in Santa Monica

Dry eyes rarely have one cause, so we don’t start with a prescription. We start by finding out why your eyes are dry, then build a plan around daily habits and home care, because that is what makes the biggest difference. If you need more, we offer IPL, radiofrequency (RF), punctal plugs, and prescription treatments, with a follow-up plan so you always know what comes next.


Myopia Management for Kids in Santa Monica

If your child’s prescription keeps getting stronger, it’s worth acting early. We start myopia evaluations at age 4. We’ll explain what rising nearsightedness can mean over time and what to expect as school demands grow and puberty arrives. Then we choose an option your child will accept: atropine drops, Stellest lenses, MiSight contact lenses, or orthokeratology (overnight lenses). We check progress every few months and adjust as your child grows.


Specialty Contact Lens Evaluations in Santa Monica

Told that contact lenses won’t work for you? Often there is a way. We evaluate multifocal, scleral, mini-scleral, and hybrid lenses, including lenses for keratoconus and for eyes after surgery. With corneal topography and trial lenses in every style, we find what works for your eyes. We have helped patients who were told elsewhere that contacts weren’t an option.
