Corneal reshaping contact lenses are worn during sleep and removed in the morning. They temporarily change the shape of the cornea, so that your child can see clearly all day long without glasses or contact lenses. During the first two weeks of overnight lens wear, your child will experience changing vision. When the vision gets worse, they may put on glasses to provide clear vision.
Soft and rigid gas-permeable multifocal contact lenses are worn in the daytime and are routinely used to help people over 40 years of age read clearly, as well as, see far away. Children may not see quite as clearly with these contact lenses as other types of contact lenses, but there are no additional risks compared to regular daily contact lenses.
Atropine is an eye drop that typically makes lights seem brighter because it makes the pupil (black hole in the middle of the eye) bigger, and it blurs near vision because it reduced the ability of the eyes to focus while looking at near objects (including text). Low concentration (0.01%) atropine has been shown to significantly slow the progression of nearsightedness without increasing pupil size or decreasing near vision dramatically.
