Helping Children See Clearly, Now and for the Future
When kids start to squint at the board or hold books too close, it can often be the first sign of myopia, also known as nearsightedness. But what some parents don’t know is that this common condition can continue to worsen as a child grows.
At Oculare Personalized Eye Care, Dr. Gavin Cohen takes a proactive approach to vision care, offering modern myopia control solutions that go beyond simply correcting blurry vision.
Through precise diagnostics like corneal topography and carefully tailored treatments, Dr. Cohen helps slow the progression of myopia and protect your child’s eyes for years to come. His personalized, technology-driven care helps children see clearly today while supporting lifelong visual health.
If your child is becoming more nearsighted each year, now is the time to explore myopia control. We invite you to book a consultation and learn how Dr. Cohen can help your child see a brighter, more confident future.

What Is Myopia Control?
Myopia control involves specialized treatments and lenses that help reduce the rate at which a child’s prescription increases. Instead of simply correcting blurred vision with glasses or contacts, these treatments aim to manage how the eye grows and focuses light.
By slowing the elongation of the eye, myopia control can lower the risk of serious eye conditions later in life, including retinal detachment, glaucoma, and macular degeneration.
Your Child’s Myopia Control Consultation
During your child’s myopia control consultation, Dr. Cohen will:
- Review your child’s vision history and prescription changes
- Perform detailed diagnostic testing, including corneal topography
- Discuss treatment options and how they work
- Create a personalized plan that fits your child’s lifestyle and vision goals
Dr. Cohen takes time to answer every question and explain what to expect from each option, so that parents feel informed and confident about their child’s care.
How We Personalize Myopia Management
The younger a child develops myopia, the more likely it is to progress into higher prescriptions. Controlling myopia during these critical years can help preserve visual quality and reduce long-term eye health risks.
Dr. Cohen focuses on early detection, consistent monitoring, and treatment plans that evolve as your child’s eyes grow.
Ortho-k lenses are worn overnight to gently reshape the cornea while your child sleeps. They provide clear daytime vision without glasses or contact lenses and can slow myopia progression by altering how light enters the eye.
These lenses are custom-designed using corneal data for a precise, comfortable fit.
Specially designed multifocal lenses create specific focusing zones that help control eye growth while providing clear vision at all distances.
Dr. Cohen offers several lens options, including NaturalVue Multifocal 1 Day, a daily disposable lens that has shown strong results in slowing myopia progression.
For children with both myopia and astigmatism, multifocal toric contact lenses provide a dual benefit. They correct astigmatism while supporting myopia control, offering clearer, sharper vision and helping reduce prescription changes over time.
Some children benefit from specially designed myopia control glasses that use advanced optics to alter how light focuses on the retina. These lenses can complement contact lens treatments or serve as a standalone option for those who prefer not to wear contacts.
For patients who need a more specialized approach, Dr. Cohen can design Wave custom contact lenses, which are tailored using corneal topography data for a truly bespoke fit.
He also offers other myopia control contact lens technologies, so that each child receives a solution precisely matched to their visual and anatomical needs.
Slow Myopia Progression with Personalized Care
Myopia can progress quietly, but early intervention makes a meaningful difference. Dr. Gavin Cohen uses diagnostics and personalized treatments, including multifocal contact lenses and ortho-k, to help slow myopia progression and support long-term eye health.
Every child’s eyes are unique, and the right plan can help them enjoy clearer vision, greater confidence, and a healthier visual future.
Don’t wait until nearsightedness worsens. Schedule a myopia control consultation today and take the first step toward protecting your child’s eyes for years to come.
