Myopia Management FAQs

What is myopia management?

Myopia management uses certain treatments and technologies to slow or even halt your child's myopia progression. Our myopia control program in Lakeshore is unique as we have the latest technology and experience to ensure your child's vision remains stable and healthy for years to come.

Is myopia management necessary?

Myopia is more than just poor vision. Childhood myopia raises the risk of developing sight-threatening eye diseases later in life, such as glaucoma, macular degeneration, and cataracts. Speak to your eye doctor about the best ways to minimize your child’s risk.

At what age does myopia (nearsightedness) usually start?

Myopia can begin as early as 6 and will usually progress until roughly age 20. The longer it progresses, and the higher the prescription, the greater your child’s risk of sight-threatening eye conditions later in life.

When should my child start myopia management?

For optimal results, myopia management should be started as soon as possible. That said, myopia control can help children and teens of all ages.

Thank you Dr. Nason for your warmth, professionalism and patience. The staff at Fulghum Optometry p... rovided an A+ Service. The location overlooks the Ortega River and the office setting is clean and tastefully decorated with art work, comfy chairs and a selection of eye ware. I'm particularly thankful for Jeff, the optician, for assisting me with the selection of eyewear that was aesthetically pleasing as well as functional.

I had an appointment with Dr Mason on 6.23.25, for a second opinion. I have had 3 different types of... glasses made from my current Optomologist and my vision is blurry. Dr Mason's examination was very thorough and extensive. During his testing I could see so clear and it felt so good. I will be coming back to Dr Mason in the future. I was very impressed with his entire office. Dr Mason is very nice and so knowledgeable and thorough.....very impressed. Gabby was awesome as well as Jeff. They were both very kind, knowledgeable and thorough in their areas of expertise. The office is also very nice and the location is in a great fun area.

I have been going to Fulghum for about two years, they take eye care seriously and I decided to move... over to having my regular eye exams moved over here from Target. I have a few conditions that can affect the health of my eyes and I feel so much better about my eye health and vision are being handled by them. They are also very professional but friendly and respectful. I highly recommend anyone to go to them for vision or regular eye care.
