Myopia Control in New York

CRT (corneal refractive therapy) lenses are specialized contact lenses worn overnight that flatten the cornea. When the lenses are removed in the morning, the wearer should have clear vision without corrective lenses throughout the day.

These lenses are also one of the most effective methods for controlling myopia. CRT lenses correct myopia while leaving peripheral myopic defocus, acting as a signal to slow eye growth and myopia progression.

Soft bifocal and multifocal contact lenses are contact lenses with more than one prescription. When the lens has a center-distance design (the central area of the lens designed for distance vision), they leave peripheral myopic defocus and signal the eye to slow growth.

Like CRT, soft multifocal and bifocal contact lenses are also one of the most effective methods for controlling myopia.
