[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Has anyone seen the research about contacts slowing the onset of nearsightedness? I didn't start them until 8the grade, and I'm still wary of trying this with younger kids, but might be worth it if it helps. Playing sports in glasses is miserable especially with helmets/goggles.[/quote] Yes, you mean rigid gas permeable contact lenses, not soft contact lenses, correct? I've seen some research on this, and PP posted about orthokeratology. [/quote] My kids' eye doctor said this was still too risky. It can work but she said high risk of scarring so she did not recommend. My kid does the atropine eyedrops. [/quote]
