Myopia has long been a global threat to public health. Timely interventions are likely reduce the risk of vision-threatening complications. There both established and rapidly evolving therapeutic approaches slow myopia progression and/or delay its onset. The effective methods for slowing include atropine eye-drops, defocus incorporated multiple segments (DIMS) spectacle lenses, lenses with highly aspherical lenslets target (HALT), diffusion optics technology (DOT) red light therapy (RLT), multifocal soft contact orthokeratology. Among these, 0.05% atropine, HALT RLT +3.00 peripheral addition yield over 60% reduction in progression, whereas DIMS, DOT MiSight demonstrate at least 50% control efficacy. demonstrates more optimal balance efficacy safety than 0.01%. 0.01% not consistent requires further validation across diverse ethnicities. Combining orthokeratology or DIMS spectacles yields better outcomes using these as monotherapies. Increased outdoor time is an health strategy prevention while recent studies suggest that low-concentration have promising potential clinical high-risk groups. being invasive, safe long-term use. However, when considering other approaches, it essential ensure proper instruction regular follow-ups maintain monitor any Ultimately, significant advances made strategies, many which shown meaningful outcomes. use adequate monitoring extended durations imperative foster confidence can only come from extensive experience.

Although the prevalence of in young children is low, 10–20% school Asia have myopia, with many still progressing, one three patients develop visual impairment age. Most participants control studies low moderate myopia; relatively little known about myopia.

Young children, excluding those some syndromic associations, who fast progressing require early intervention close monitoring.

Myopia has significantly risen in East and Southeast Asia, the pathological outcomes of this condition, such as myopic maculopathy optic neuropathy linked to high myopia, have emerged leading causes irreversible vision loss. Addressing issue requires strategies reduce myopia prevalence prevent progression myopia. Encouraging outdoor activities for schoolchildren reducing near-work screen time can effectively development, offering a safe intervention that promotes healthier habits. Several clinical approaches be employed decelerate progression, administering low-dose atropine eye drops (0.05%), utilizing orthokeratology lenses, implementing soft contact lenses equipped with control features, incorporating spectacle aspherical lenslets. When choosing an appropriate strategy, factors age, ethnicity, rate should considered. However, some treatments may encounter obstacles adverse side effects, costs, complex procedures, or limited effectiveness. Presently, appear promising options managing The measures mentioned above are not necessarily mutually exclusive, researchers increasingly exploring their combined effects. By advocating personalized approach based on individual risk unique needs each child, review aims contribute development targeted effective prevention strategies, thereby minimizing impact its related complications among school-aged children affected regions.
