Protecting Future Vision

Myopia is common. Managing it is worthwhile.

Nearsightedness often increases as children grow. Dr. Mustafa Rawji evaluates the specific characteristics of your child's eyes and builds an individual management plan, then follows progress closely over time.

A detailed assessment

A comprehensive exam looks at your child's vision and the characteristics of their eyes.

Personalized for your child

Recommendations depend on your child's assessment, habits, and what suits your family.

Consistent follow-up

Regular visits help track changes so the plan can be adjusted when needed.

What to Expect

Our approach, step by step.

Management starts with understanding your child's eyes and continues with regular reviews. Here is the general process.

  1. Gather background

    We discuss your child's prescription history, family history of myopia, and daily routines.

  2. Complete a thorough exam

    Your optometrist assesses your child's vision and the specific characteristics of their eyes.

  3. Recommend a plan

    Based on the findings, we suggest a personalized management approach and explain why.

  4. Track progress

    Scheduled follow-ups monitor changes so the plan can be reviewed and adjusted.

The Bigger Picture

Slowing progression can matter later in life.

Myopia management aims to slow how quickly nearsightedness progresses during childhood. That can help reduce the need for stronger and thicker lenses and lower the risk of eye health complications associated with high myopia. It looks beyond this year's prescription toward your child's long-term eye health.

Your optometrist considers several factors that may contribute to progression, including family history and daily habits. Based on the assessment, they will recommend an approach suited to your child and explain the reasoning clearly. Options depend on what the exam shows.

Why does my child's prescription keep getting stronger?

Myopia often progresses through childhood. A myopia management assessment helps understand your child's situation and whether a plan to help slow progression is appropriate.

What approach will you recommend?

It depends on your child's assessment. Your optometrist will explain the options that fit your child's eyes and needs.

Do regular glasses slow myopia?

Regular glasses correct blurry distance vision. Myopia management focuses specifically on monitoring and helping slow progression.

How long does myopia management continue?

Your optometrist will discuss this based on your child's age, progress, and how their eyes respond over time.

Dr rawji and patty are great. I’ve been with them for over 10 years. He was concerned of an issue that I was getting and sent me to a specialist. Patty always make sure that I get Stylish classes every couple of years. Their new office is nice and it located close to 404 and 401.
