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 Osage Beach 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.

Had a great experience at this location. Dr. Edward’s really took her time and had a lot of patien... ce with my daughter throughout the process, especially once we found out her prescription from her last check up in a different location out of state was completely wrong. The staff was friendly and efficient, helpful and knowledgeable. I definitely will be going back for the rest of my family and highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a kind and caring place to go get your eyes checked!

This place did a fantastic job for me. I was in and out in about 30 minutes from start to finish. My... glasses were the perfect view for me and I chose a pair of glasses with rhinestones and when I picked up my glasses and walked out to my car and looked closer in the mirror, one of the stones was missing. I walked back in to let them know and they ordered me a new pair immediately but sent me on my way with the ones I bought until my new ones come in. I felt veery well cared for there and the staff is top notch!

Always great customer service, prices seem to be fair, and Dr. Haley is incredibly knowledgeable. Tw... o years ago I had to be transferred to a specialist about an eye condition. The specialist was so impressed with Dr. Haley that he insisted I didn’t need to return to him and she could monitor the condition. The Lake is fortunate to have her expertise.

I had a bad chemical get my eye and after flushing it out I wanted to have my eye checked out. I don... 't live at the lake and felt urgent care would not be set up to check my eye. Eyes on Missouri was close so I did a walk in, explained my concerns to the receptionist, she was great and worked me into the schedule.. Dr Haley did a thorough exam and checked my eye. She was great and put my worries to rest. Thank you EOM
