Does Your Child Have Myopia?
Myopia, or short-sightedness, affects many children, with nearly one in five teenagers in the UK now myopic. It's typically caused by the eye being slightly longer than usual. Mackey Opticians specialise in myopia management, utilising special spectacle lenses or contact lenses to slow down its progression. With research-backed techniques, we aim to provide effective solutions for children at risk of myopia. From reducing the need for strong prescriptions to minimising the risks of associated eye diseases, our approach prioritises your child's long-term vision health.
