At Texas State Optical Mansfield, we believe early diagnosis and proactive treatment are key to protecting your long-term vision. That’s why our myopia management plans are designed to go beyond simply correcting eyesight - we work to slow the progression of myopia and safeguard your eye health for years to come.
The first step in any myopia management plan is a detailed eye exam. During your comprehensive evaluation, our doctors check more than just your prescription. We examine the shape and health of your eyes, measure visual acuity, and use advanced diagnostic tools to determine the extent of myopia and whether it is progressing. This personalized assessment forms the foundation of your treatment plan.
One of the most effective tools in slowing myopia progression in children is the use of low-dose atropine eye drops. These drops are applied daily and have been shown in research to significantly reduce the rate at which nearsightedness worsens. Our doctors will guide you through proper use and monitor your child’s response closely at follow-up visits.
For children who are candidates, MiSight® 1 day contact lenses are another powerful option. These FDA-approved lenses are specifically designed to both correct vision and slow myopia progression. They’re worn like a standard daily contact lens, offering comfort and convenience while giving parents peace of mind that their child’s future eye health is being protected.
Myopia management doesn’t stop after starting treatment. Regular follow-up visits are an essential part of the plan. At TSO Mansfield, we track changes in vision, adjust treatments if necessary, and ensure your child is comfortable and confident with their care. Our goal is to provide long-term protection for your child’s eyesight.
Myopia management is more than just a prescription - it’s a comprehensive approach to slowing progression and protecting vision for the future. At Texas State Optical Mansfield, we combine advanced diagnostics with proven treatments like atropine eye drops and MiSight® 1 day contact lenses to give your family the highest level of care.
