Proven Myopia Treatments

Ortho-K lenses gently reshape the cornea overnight, giving children clear, glasses-free vision during the day. But unlike most Ortho-K designs, which come in pre-set or limited designs, WAVE NightLens is fully customizable — as unique as your child’s fingerprint.

While many doctors may be certified in WAVE, it takes extensive experience and advanced training to design lenses at the highest level. Dr. Miller has that rare expertise, allowing her to create lenses that go beyond the limitations of standard Ortho-K and fit virtually any prescription with precision and safety

Unlike standard daily disposable contacts, these specialty lenses are specifically designed to slow the progression of myopia in children. They are worn comfortably during the day like regular contacts, but their advanced optical designs provide proven protection for your child’s long-term vision.
MiSight® lenses are FDA-approved for childhood myopia control, while NaturalVue® MF offers an innovative extended-depth design. Both options are safe, effective, and tailored to fit your child’s lifestyle.

Stellest lenses look like ordinary glasses and are worn just like regular single-vision lenses. They use a specialized lens design that helps slow the progression of nearsightedness in children and teens while still providing clear, comfortable vision for everyday activities. There are no visible lines, and most people won’t notice anything different about how the glasses look.

Low-dose atropine eye drops are a safe, research-backed option to slow myopia progression, used once nightly before bed. Typically, atropine is used for younger children or for those who may not yet be ready for contacts.
We also use atropine in a preventative role — for children whose eyes have already grown more than expected (as measured by axial length) but who are not yet visually nearsighted. This allows us to step in early, before glasses or contacts are needed, to help protect their vision for the future.

For children at higher risk of fast progression, combining treatments often provides the strongest protection. Pairing options like WAVE NightLens and atropine can maximize effectiveness while still fitting your child’s lifestyle and comfort. Dr. Miller carefully evaluates each child’s prescription, eye health, and family history to recommend the right combination — ensuring the best chance to slow myopia safely and effectively.
