High myopia, very nearsighted, vision correction options - A State of Sight #24
In this episode of A State of Sight, Isaac Porter, MD explains the vision correction options available for patients that are very nearsighted. Glasses and contact lenses are usually the first choice, but surgery can be considered for those who would like to reduce their dependance on glasses or contacts.

Just by looking at an eye,you cannot determine whether it is normal or Myopic.
A normal,healthy eye does not need glasses to see clearly.Light rays enter the eye and end up on the retina,then go through the optical nerve to the brain.
A myopic,or nearsighted,eye is elongated,which causes the light rays to get focused on a point in front of the retina,causing distance vision to become blurry.
Myopia is easily corrected with glasses.When a nearsighted person...

what is myopia??? (Short Sightedness)
Myopia (Short Sightedness)
Myopia results if the lens curvature is too great or the entire eyeball becomes elongated. Light rays entering the eye are refracted more than is necessary. Consequently light is focused in front of the retina. The image perceived is thus blurred. The condition is called short-sightedness as objects near the eye are clearer than those further away. Myopia can be corrected by placing a concave lens in front of the eye. The surface of the concave lens refracts light rays in such a way that the rays diverge slightly from their original path. The lens of the myopic eye now refracts the diverged light rays in to focus on the retina.

Data indicates that nearly half of the world will be nearsighted (myopic) by the year 2050. Are we taking this health concern seriously enough? Dr. Kevin Chan is the Center Director of Treehouse Eyes, the only specialty medical practice in the U.S. that is dedicated exclusively to myopia management for children. Dr. Chan obtained his undergraduate degree in Pharmacology at Western University in London, ON, Canada. He later graduated with distinguished dual degrees of Doctor of Optometry (O.D.) and Masters of Vision Science (M.S.) from the New England College of Optometry, Boston, MA. Dr. Chan is a Fellow of the American Academy of Optometry; and is a guest contributor in the Review of Optometry. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
