Protect Their Vision

Parents did you know that uncorrected myopia is a leading cause of preventable vision impairment? High levels of myopia increase the risk of vision problems later in life. Retinal detachment, cataracts, degeneration of the retina, and glaucoma can cause vision loss.

Myopia also has an influence on the quality of life, self esteem, and school performance of children.
