Progressive Myopia in Children and Adolescents

Progressive myopia, or nearsightedness that worsens over time, is becoming increasingly common in children and teens. Left unmanaged, it can lead to serious vision complications later in life.

Major symptoms include:

• Blurry distance vision

• Frequent squinting

• Complaints of headaches or eye strain

• Holding books or screens very close

• Rapidly changing prescription glasses

Early detection and intervention are key to slowing progression and protecting long-term eye health.
