Treatment Options:

Ortho-K

Orthokeratology (Ortho-K)

Ortho-K is a non-surgical and non-invasive treatment option that involves wearing specially designed contact lenses overnight. These lenses gently reshape the cornea, providing clear vision during the day without the need for glasses or daytime contact lenses. Ortho-K is highly effective at slowing the progression of myopia in children and can help prevent more severe nearsightedness.

Anti-Fatigue

Special Anti-Fatigued Glasses

We offer special anti-fatigued glasses designed to reduce eye strain and minimize the progression of myopia in children. These glasses feature advanced coatings and lens designs that reduce the strain caused by prolonged near work, such as reading and screen time. By providing comfortable and clear vision, they help maintain healthy eyes.

MiSight

MiSight Contact Lenses

MiSight contact lenses are a proven method to manage myopia in children. These soft, daily disposable contact lenses are designed to slow the progression of nearsightedness. MiSight lenses have been clinically shown to be effective in reducing myopia progression, making them an excellent choice for young individuals.

Atropine

Atropine

Atropine eye drops can be used to slow down the progression of myopia in children. At Dunkirk Vision, we offer this treatment under professional supervision, ensuring that it is safe and effective for your child. Atropine is used in customized concentrations to help protect your child's vision.
