Spending time outdoors (1-2 hours/day) can also be beneficial. Common treatment options that are proven to slow down the progression of myopia include: 1) Orthokeratology 2) Atropine 3) Bifocal/Multifocal contact lenses Before starting any treatment, it is important to discuss with your eye care practitioner about the various options as well as read up more about the individual treatment in order to make an informed decision that will ultimately be in the best interest of your child.
