Give Your Child the Gift of Clearer Vision with Stellest Lenses at Heights Eye Studio

Parents might notice their child squinting at distant signs or struggling to read the board at school, and the concern grows when each eye exam shows an increasing prescription. At Heights Eye Studio, we understand how frightening progressive nearsightedness can be. That’s why we’re thrilled to introduce Stellest® lenses – the cutting-edge technology that slows myopia progression and maintains your child’s vision for the future.   

What are Stellest Lenses? 

Essilor introduced Stellest® lenses, one of the most significant innovations in kids’ eye care in recent times. These lenses not only sharpen blurred vision, but they also control how the eyesight develops – an important factor in controlling myopia (nearsightedness).

Old-fashioned spectacles have the power of correcting vision for the time being, but Stellest spectacles treat the cause of myopia. With clinical trials, such spectacles have been demonstrated to reduce myopia growth by an average of 67% as compared to normal single-vision glasses if used every day for 12 hours or longer.

This makes Stellest lenses a wise, forward-looking step for families to give their children the optimum chance for long-term eye health.

Why Myopia Control Is Necessary  

Myopia is increasing among children worldwide. Nearly half of the world’s population could be myopic by 2050, reports the World Health Organization. That is not a statistic – it’s a public health concern. Severe myopia significantly increases the risk of eye disease in old age, such as retinal detachment, glaucoma, and macular degeneration.

Early intervention is key. Myopia management during childhood reduces those risks and ensures healthy eye development. Stellest lenses, along with other evidence-based methods like orthokeratology (Ortho-K) and low-dose atropine treatment, form the solid foundation for effective myopia management.

Are Stellest Lenses Right for Your Child?

Your child may benefit from Stellest lenses if they:

• They are between 8 and 12 years old
• Are currently nearsighted or show early signs of myopia

• Spend long periods in front of computer screens

Our comprehensive myopia evaluations involve the latest diagnostic tools and an in-depth discussion about your child’s way of life, allowing us to recommend the most suitable treatment for them.
