Stellest Lenses for Myopia Control in Dr.'s Eyecare Center, NJ
Myopia, commonly known as nearsightedness, often progresses during childhood and adolescence. At Drs Eyecare Center, we offer Stellest lenses, an advanced spectacle lens option designed to slow myopia progression while providing clear, comfortable vision for everyday activities.
What Are Stellest Lenses?
Stellest lenses are prescription eyeglass lenses specifically designed for children with progressive myopia. Unlike standard single-vision lenses, Stellest lenses use specialized lens technology to manage how light focuses on the retina, helping reduce the signals that cause the eye to continue elongating over time.
Children see clearly through the center of the lens while the surrounding lens design works continuously in the background to help control myopia progression.
How Stellest Lenses Help Slow Myopia Progression
Myopia typically worsens as the eye grows longer. Stellest lenses are designed to address this by creating a unique optical profile that reduces peripheral defocus, a key factor linked to myopia progression.
Clinical studies have shown that Stellest lenses can significantly slow the progression of nearsightedness in children when worn consistently as prescribed. This helps protect long-term eye health while supporting clear, comfortable vision throughout the day.

-
