Stellest® Lenses in Needham, MA

Stellest® lenses are specially designed eyeglass lenses that combine vision correction with myopia management. Unlike traditional prescription lenses that correct blurry distance vision but do not specifically address the progression of myopia, Stellest lenses are designed to help slow the progression of nearsightedness in children.

Stellest lenses use a specialized lens design incorporating thousands of lens elements around the central correction zone. This design creates a specific visual signal in front of the retina that is intended to help reduce excessive eye growth, one of the primary factors associated with increasing childhood myopia.

For children who need glasses and may not be ready for contact lenses, Stellest can provide a non-contact-lens option for myopia management. The lenses are worn during normal daily activities while providing the clear vision children need for school, sports, reading, and other activities.

At Bright Eyes Needham, we evaluate your child's prescription, visual needs, eye health, and rate of myopia progression to determine whether Stellest lenses may be an appropriate part of their personalized myopia management plan.
