Myopia control lenses are optical devices used to correct visual defects associated with myopia. Discover in this article these corrective lenses which compensate for the refraction of light in the myopic eye and obtain sharp and clear vision. And keep reading to find out when and which specialist to consult to determine the type and appropriate correction for each individual!
Myopia control glasses, also known as corrective lenses, are optical devices used to correct visual defects related to myopia.
Our COP9 team reminds you that myopia is a vision disorder characterized by difficulty seeing far away and clear vision up close. This is an abnormality of the eye where light rays focus in front of the retina, rather than directly on it.
These glasses are made up of special lenses that help correct the blurred vision associated with myopia. They are designed to provide optical correction suitable for light refraction problems that occur in the myopic eye.
Curbing myopia refers to all the measures and techniques aimed at slowing down the progression of myopia. Myopia is usually caused by an elongated shape of the eye, which causes light rays to focus incorrectly on the retina.
When corrective lenses are worn, they help the myopic eye to focus light rays on the retina, so that vision is clear and precise. Corrective lenses adapt the curvature to compensate for the visual defect and thus allow the eye to see from a distance without distortion or blur.

Myopia usually develops during childhood and adolescence, and can continue to progress into adulthood.
Several factors have been identified as being linked to the progression of myopia, including:
Curbing myopia relies on various approaches, ranging from non-surgical methods to surgical interventions. The two main non-surgical methods are wearing corrective glasses and wearing contact lenses at night (orthokeratology). These two means of optical correction are able to slow down visual impairment by correctly focusing light rays on the retina.
Glasses and contact lenses are based on the refraction of light rays through the cornea, eye lens and contact lenses to correct myopia and improve visual acuity.
The goal of myopia reduction is to slow the progression of myopia in young people, in order to reduce the risk of long-term eye complications, such as glaucoma, cataracts and retinal detachment.
Moreover, myopia progression can lead to:
However, it is possible to prevent or reduce these problems by slowing down the progression of myopia.
The approach to curbing myopia is adapted according to the degree of myopia and the individual needs of each person. It is important to consult an ophthalmologist to obtain a complete eye exam and a suitable prescription.
These methods require regular optical correction and regular eye monitoring to assess the progression of myopia.
In conclusion, curbing myopia is a set of measures and techniques aimed at slowing the progression of myopia and improving distance vision. This can be achieved through wearing glasses or contact lenses, or through refractive surgical procedures.
This control is essential to prevent long-term ocular complications and improve the quality of life of people with myopia. It is recommended to consult an ophthalmologist to obtain a personalized assessment and tailored recommendations.
