Myopia Management with Essilor® Stellest® Lenses
If your child’s nearsightedness (myopia) seems to be getting worse each year, Essilor® Stellest® lenses could be the next step in protecting their vision. These advanced lenses offer more than just clear sight. They actively help slow the progression of myopia over time.
At Lowcountry Eye Care, we offer Stellest® lenses as part of our personalized myopia management program, designed with your child’s long-term eye health in mind.
What Makes Stellest® Lenses Different?
Unlike standard glasses that simply correct vision, Stellest® lenses feature advanced technology that targets the root cause of myopia progression: elongation of the eye.
Each lens contains a constellation of tiny, invisible lens segments that create a specialized treatment zone. While your child sees clearly through the center of the lens, these segments work throughout the day to help slow the eye’s growth—without disrupting their routine.
Top Benefits of Stellest® for Kids with Myopia
Stellest® lenses provide clear vision for everyday life while actively managing myopia, all in a design that looks and feels just like regular glasses.
Key benefits include:
- Clear, comfortable vision just like standard glasses
- Helps reduce the progression of myopia by an average of 67% when worn 12+ hours a day
- Non-invasive and easy to wear, with no daily routines to change
- Keeps peripheral vision and depth perception intact
- Great option for kids who aren’t ready for contacts
Is Stellest® the Right Fit for Your Child’s Vision?
Stellest® lenses are recommended for children with progressive myopia, especially if their prescription changes noticeably each year. Our eye doctors take a comprehensive approach by evaluating:
- Your child’s current prescription
- Family history of myopia
- Overall eye health
If we determine that Stellest® lenses are a good fit, we’ll include them as part of a customized myopia control plan tailored to your child’s needs.
Why Early Myopia Treatment Matters
When myopia is left unchecked, it can increase the risk of serious eye conditions later in life, including retinal detachment and glaucoma. That’s why early intervention matters.
Stellest® lenses offer a gentle, consistent way to support your child’s vision without interfering with their school day, sports, or playtime.
