What does “all hands on deck” collaboration look like in myopia care? Myopia isn’t a clinician-only problem. And it isn’t an industry-only solution.

Post-LASIK corneas demand different rules!
We go all-in on Post-LASIK Ortho-K—and why so many of these cases fail before lens design ever starts.

Kids who don’t wear their myopia glasses… parents still inserting Ortho-K for teenagers… and atropine compliance all over the map!

A 7-year-old. –6.50 already.
After starting ortho-K, she walked into her first follow-up without lenses… saw me across the parking lot… and waved.
The confidence shift was instant.
This is why myopia management matters.

Canadian clinics already know how big this shift is. Are we ready in the U.S.?

Early on, very few practices were doing myopia control — especially in Minnesota — which gave some groups a head start.
The real advantage wasn’t timing, though. It was systems.

Strong OD/MD partnership. It’s not a new concept… it’s a familiar one applied earlier in a child’s journey.

Why cooperation wins: #Optometry x #Ophthalmology

With an ophthalmologist shortage coming, the future is integrative care. Optometrists + ophthalmologists working together = better patient outcomes. 👁️

Parents don’t want to guess—they want clarity.
Nighttime phone use is a huge red flag: kids who scroll in bed are almost always more nearsighted, and harder to slow.
Clear guidance > guesswork.

The Real Cardinal Sins of Myopia Management 🔍
It’s rarely about a “botched fit.”
The biggest mistakes in myopia management are the ones we create ourselves:

We’re past due on this, according to Dr. Cary Herzberg:
Myopia is a disease — and early treatment, prevention, and axial length monitoring aren’t optional anymore.
#MyopiaManagement #MyopiaControl #EyeHealth #Optometry
Myopia isn’t “just genetics.”
Clinicians do have responsibility — because myopia is a progressive disease we can manage.
It’s past time we treat it like one.
Myopia is a disease. Period.

We don’t let myopia get worse. 👁️
Myopia is a growing problem — one that can’t be left to just a few hundred specialists. Every practice has a role to play. www.myopiamindset.com

That “minus” on the prescription isn’t just a number — it means the eye is stretching and getting weaker.
Myopia control isn’t about lenses; it’s about protecting sight for life. 💙

Myopia = the eye growing too long, too fast, and getting weaker.
Our job is to do something about it—simply.

💡 Commoditization Is Killing Medical Value?
Soft lenses became “just contacts” — not medical devices. We can’t let that happen to Ortho-K.
They’re custom medical devices, not commodities. Words matter. 👁️
