Slowing Myopia, Protecting Young Eyes
Childhood nearsightedness doesn’t just mean stronger glasses every year — progressing myopia raises lifelong risk of retinal detachment, glaucoma, and myopic degeneration. The prescription your child has at eighteen matters for the rest of their life, and today we can do something about it.
Essilor Stellest™ Lenses
Stellest lenses look and wear like ordinary glasses, but a constellation of 1,021 invisible micro-lenses creates a signal that slows the eye’s elongation — the engine of myopia. In clinical trials, Stellest slowed myopia progression by 67% on average when worn twelve hours a day, compared with standard single-vision lenses.
What To Expect
We start with a comprehensive exam and baseline measurements, fit the lenses just like a normal pair of glasses, and track progress at regular check-ins. Kids adapt within days — to them, they’re simply their glasses. To their future eyes, they’re much more.
