安医生热忱
近视控制不仅仅是视力。
近视通常是一种从童年开始的进行性疾病，不仅影响视力，而且还会增加青光眼、黄斑疾病和视网膜脱离的风险。
我七岁开始戴眼镜，直到最近技术赶上我的高度近视才停止。因为我开始戴眼镜时的年龄，我一直想对人们的视力有所帮助，特别是帮助年幼的孩子控制他们不断进展的近视，并通过提供另一种选择来提高他们的自尊心。
由于安东尼医生和我都是近视，我们的孩子患近视的几率是 40-50%。我们都同意尽一切努力减少他们患上与我们相同处方的可能性。减少屏幕时间，更多时间在户外（根据最近的研究，每天至少 1.5-2 小时），以及角膜塑形镜是可行的。
对于已经近视的孩子来说，眼矫正器提供了一个很好的控制机会！三年前，当我成为 Paragon CRT 的认证正畸专家时，我的前三位患者是我的表兄弟！我的表兄弟们控制得很好。我当时 6 岁的最小表弟自那时以来没有改变处方，而我当时 9 岁和 13 岁的另外两位表弟在 3 年内只增加了 0.50D。
但是我们经常忘记散光矫正镜片的目的是维持和控制近视，以减少患青光眼、黄斑变性和快速形成白内障等严重眼疾的风险。我想确保保护我的视力，以便能够享受和看到我的孩子成长。

您厌倦了眼镜或隐形眼镜的麻烦吗？您是否考虑过一种革命性的视力矫正方法，称为正畸角膜术或正畸角膜？这种创新的方法可以帮助您实现清晰的视力，而无需每天佩戴眼镜。
什么是正畸角膜术？
正畸角膜术是一种非手术视力矫正方法，涉及在睡眠时佩戴特制的保留器（透氧性隐形眼镜）。这些镜片轻轻地重塑角膜（眼睛的透明前表面）以改善白天的视力。
正畸角膜术是如何工作的？
在您睡觉时，正畸角膜术保留器轻轻地对角膜施加压力，暂时改变其形状以矫正近视（近视）。当您醒来时，您可以取下保留器，您的视力在白天清晰。

- Parent(s) are nearsighted / have myopia
- High near sightedness / myopia
- Yearly progression of myopia (nearsightedness)
How do I know if I or my child has myopia?
- Yearly progression of myopia (nearsightedness)
- Poor distance vision
- Frequent headaches or blurry vision
- Constantly rubbing the eyes
- Poor comfort or vision with contact lenses or glasses
- Poor focus and visual tracking
- Chronic redness or tearing of the eyes

FAQs
- Is it permanent? No, the eye retainers do not cause a permanent change in the shape of the cornea. The advantage of the non-permanent change is, if there is a change in your or your child’s prescription, a new retainer can be designed to accommodate for this change.
- Why not LASIK for my child? The purpose of Laser surgery for the eyes is to give good vision, not slow down myopia. For young patients, as the prescription tends to get progressively worse each year, Laser surgery is not recommended. The purpose of the Eye retainers is to slow down myopia & an additional benefit is having good vision. As such, it is recommended for any age, but especially recommended for children.
- How safe are wearing retainers overnight? Wearing any type of contact lens or retainer will have a risk of infection. However, because the retainers are worn at home & with the presence of an adult, the risks of infections or other types of complications are minimal. In addition, proper cleaning, wearing & replacement will keep eye complications to a minimum.
- How do I clean the lenses? We often a rub, rinse & store solution specifically made for retainers. Ask your eye doctor for a recommended solution. This link will take you to a more detailed lens cleaning guide.
- What do I do if my child loses or breaks the retainer? Let us know as soon as you can. A new retainer will need to be ordered, but in the meantime, we can provide soft contact lenses to wear.
- What happens if you forget to wear the retainer? Your child’s vision will go back to his / her original prescription. However, this is a gradual process. Depending on the child, we would recommend to wear during the school day or we can provide soft contact lenses to wear; then resume wearing the retainers during sleep.
The Science of Myopia & CoRE Retainers
The cornea, which is the front of the eye is responsible for focusing light onto the the retina (the back of the eye).
For nearsighted people (or myopia) the eye is longer, this in turn changes the focus point. Instead of focusing on the retina, light is now focused inside of the eye.
The left illustration shows the initial Eye retainer on Day 1 vs treatment eye shape. Eye retainers are worn like contact lenses, but at night when you sleep. The eye retainer reshapes your eye and when you wake up, take the retainers off, your eye has a different shape!
