Myo-Care: The Key To Better Vision

WAYS TO CONTROL MYOPIA

Myopia has seen a significant global rise in recent decades. It advances most
swiftly from ages 6 until early adulthood, underscoring the vital need for
early monitoring and intervention. Detecting and managing myopia early
gives the best results. Please see below, supported methods that effectively
manage and curb myopia progression.

AXIAL LENGTH MEASUREMENT

Once the eye has grown longer, there is no way we can shrink the eye again. Our treatment for myopia aims to reduce the rate of eye growth and keep eye growth within normal limits. The only true way of checking the effectiveness of treatment is by measuring the axial length of your child’s
eyes.

At Sparks & Feros Optometrists we are able to measure the axial length of your child’s eyes with our new IOL Master system which is fast painless and makes no contact with the eye.
Did you know?
Myopia occurs when the eye grows too long? We measure + monitor your child’s eye length.


IOL MASTER BIOMETRY ASSESSMENT

Axial length biometry and the charting Axial Length over time is the gold standard of care. It is the only true way to monitor the effectiveness of the your child’s myopia control treatment.

Our Optometrist can chart your child’s eye growth

 

Central optical zone surrounded by defocus area

NEW SPECTACLE LENSES TO TREAT MYOPIA

There are three new spectacle lenses that show great promise in effectively slowing myopia. They are Essilor Stellest, Zeiss Myocare and Hoya Mi Yosmart lenses.

These special lenses can slow myopia progression by an average of 60-67%. These lenses use a technology that has a clear central optical zone surrounded by many ‘defocus segments’. It is these “defocus segments” that help to control myopia progression.

 

ORTHOKERATOLOGY “SLEEP LENSES” FOR MYOPIA CONTROL

Children wear ortho-k lenses while asleep and enjoy clarity of vision in the morning and throughout the day! This surgery-free correction to myopia, gently reshapes their corneas while they sleep and is recommended for children who need myopia control therapy but want to be free of wearing spectacles and contact
lenses during day. Ortho-K lenses provide clear central vision while creating a zone of peripheral defocus which retards and slows down eye growth.

In recent decades, Orthokeratology has gained popularity, driven by accumulating evidence showing its effectiveness in not only providing short-term myopia correction but also in slowing down myopia progression over the long term.

 

SOFT MULTIFOCAL CONTACT LENSES FOR MYOPIA CONTROL

Multifocal 1 Day contact lenses are now used as an effective option to
reduce the progression of myopia. Like orthokeratology, these lenses blur the
image that falls on the peripheral retina. This does nothing to compromise central vision and is not usually noticeable to the wearer. This peripheral defocus is the key to slowing down the progression of myopia.

 

ATROPINE EYE DROPS

Recent studies such as the Atropine in the Treatment of Myopia (ATOM) project provide strong evidence to support the use of low concentration atropine eyedrops to retard the progression of myopia. Atropine is a prescription-only medication, Atropine acts to relax the eye’s focusing system and may slightly enlarge the pupil. Atropine drops can have some mild side-effects.

 

REPEATED LOW-LEVEL RED-LIGHT MYOPIA THERAPY AT HOME

SAVING SIGHT SOONER MAKES BRIGHTER FUTURES

Repeated Low-Level Red-Light Myopia therapy at home has been shown to slow down the progression of myopia. It does this by improving the metabolic rate and circulation of the eye. Repeated Low-Level Red-Light (RLRL) therapy, is a highly effective and child-friendly way to slow the progression of myopia.

Designed to be easy and convenient to use at home, the therapy involves looking into the device for 3 minutes of treatment, 2 times per day, 5 days per week, with a minimum of 4 hours between sessions. The device is controlled with a simple touchscreen and tracks each child’s use. It can also be monitored by your optometrist and programmed to send SMS reminders to patient’s guardian.


Is this device safe?

It is free of any known significant side effects; and is suitable for use by children as young as 3 and up to 16. International approvals & regulatory status. The Eyerising Myopia Management Device meets the quality, safety, and efficacy standards required by medical regulators in over 30 countries across Europe and Australasia.*

 

HOW EFFECTIVE RLRL?

Long-lasting Dry Eye Relief

 

 

SYSTANE Family of Products for Dry Eye Management

The All-In-One eye drop that relieves all types of dry eye (aqueous deficient, evaporative and mixed dry) for up to 8 hours

For Moderate dry eye patients. Contains hyaluronic acid providing 2x moisture retention. Supports ocular surface healing in dry eyes, including after eye surgery. 

For mild dry eye patients in need of fast relief.

For severe dry eye patients in need of extra protection.

Removes debris and eye makeup that may cause irritation.

 

Always read the label and follow the directions for us.

 

Systane HYDRATION Lubricant Eye Drops combines hyaluronic acid (HA) with hydroxypropyl guar (HP-Guar) to promote greater hydration and lubrication than HA alone.

HP-Guar

Hyaluronic Acid

 Upon instillation, HP-Guar cross links with borate, creating a visco-elastic matrix designed to bandage over damaged epithelium and aids in retention of the demulcents. HA has been shown in preclinical studies to potentially promote cellular proliferation, anti-inflammation and wounds healing often required in dry eye management

 

2x Greater moisture retention versus HA alone*1+

Study overview: Human ocular epithelial cell preparations were cultivated and then soaked in varius test formulations. After rinsing away the formulations and desiccating the cells, moisture retention on the epithelial surface was significantly greater with Systane HYDRATION compare with HA alone (p<0.001)

After rinsing and drying, 44.4% of cells treated with Systane HYDRATION were viable compared to 21.5% of cells treated with HA alone.

Faster ocular re-epithelialistion vs other HA products

Study overview: Epithelium debridement was performed and randomised HA-containing artificial tear products were instilled for a total of 4 administrations. After 24 hours debridement, corneas were stained with flourescein, imaged and analysed to calclate the total flourescein-positive area and evaluate the number of re-epithelialised corneas (flourescein negative) in each treatment group.
