At Clarendon Vision, we’re always looking for the latest, most effective ways to help children maintain healthy vision. That’s why we’re excited to introduce Essilor Stellest lenses, the only FDA-approved myopia management spectacle lenses designed to slow the progression of nearsightedness in children.
Nearsightedness in children, also known as myopia, is on the rise. Studies predict that 1 in 3 children in the U.S. will be myopic by 2030. Increased screen time, close-up work, and limited outdoor activity are all contributing factors. Early intervention is key, because uncontrolled myopia in childhood can lead to higher risks of serious eye conditions later in life, including retinal detachment, glaucoma, cataracts, and myopic macular degeneration.
Stellest lenses are lightweight, comfortable, and look just like regular glasses, making them easy for kids to wear every day. Unlike traditional glasses, these myopia control lenses are scientifically designed to slow myopia progression, with clinical studies showing an average 71% reduction in myopia progression over two years. They also provide clear vision with a single vision zone, giving children sharp, comfortable eyesight all day.
For parents seeking childhood myopia treatment, Stellest lenses offer a non-invasive and lifestyle-friendly option. They’re perfect for children who are active, sensitive to drops, or not yet ready for contact lenses. By choosing spectacle lenses for myopia management, parents can help protect their child’s long-term eye health while providing clear vision today.
As a pediatric myopia specialist serving Westmont and the surrounding communities, our Clarendon Vision myopia program offers a full range of treatment options, including Stellest lenses, orthokeratology (Ortho-K), multifocal contact lenses, and pharmacologic interventions. Each treatment is carefully personalized to your child’s needs, ensuring the most effective approach to slowing myopia progression.
