If your kid's near-sightedness is getting worse each year, they may have something called progressive myopia. In this the child’s prescription changes rapidly, their eyeglasses are getting thicker and they and showing more symptoms of Myopia.
The increase in myopia can be controlled by different myopia control strategies. One of them is Ortho-k lenses. These specially designed customized lenses have to be worn overnight.

These lenses reshape the cornea overnight precisely and accurately giving clear vision to the kids.
