Hereditary, behavioural and environmental factors also play a part. Being able to have your child’s myopia diagnosed early not only corrects their vision now, but can help slow the progression of myopia and preserve their vision and eye health for the future. If myopia management is started whilst the eye is still growing, we can halt the rate of progression of myopia by up to 60%. MiYOSMART is an innovative spectacle lens for myopia control developed by world leading lens manufacturers Hoya, together with their research collaborator. Based on a two-year clinical trial results, with its award-winning D.I.M.S. (Defocus Incorporated Multiple Segments) technology, MiYOSMART is proven to curb myopia progression in children in average by 60%* The lenses are great for active children as they are made from high impact polycarbonate which also has UV protection. Myopia control does not cure myopia but aims to slow down the rate at which it gets worse. *CH. Defocus Incorporated Multiple Segments (DIMS) spectacle lenses slow myopia progression: a 2-year randomised clinical trial. British Journal of Ophthalmology.

This provides clear vision and myopic defocus simultaneously at all viewing distances. https://www.latimereyecare.co.uk/special-needs daily 0.75 2025-05-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6818ef471458533813b6fe5b/1746464594512-D85CWY36WLKY4VKBUHVU/Ishihara+colour+perception+test.jpg Special Needs - Special Needs At Latimer Eye Care we are fully adaptable to patients with special needs as we have an autistic family member.

It is similar to ultrasound using light rather than sound waves to image the different layers that make up the structure at the front and the back of your eye. The OCT machine captures a cross-sectional scan of the eye. The software can detect even the most subtle changes to the retina with each eye test you have, giving us a invaluable ongoing record of the health and condition of your eyes. Common, potentially serious conditions that the OCT can identify through regular screening are: Age Related Macular Degeneration Diabetes Glaucoma https://www.latimereyecare.co.uk/hearingcare daily 0.75 2025-05-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6818ef471458533813b6fe5b/1746464597433-5GYOGMPNYOTEN7Z52HG5/THCP+Logo+-+White+New.png Hearing Care - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6818ef471458533813b6fe5b/1746464597443-Z6EP2V532W7FJWIR8CRJ/Hearing+Aids+2+%28lifestyle%29+-+Oticon+Life+Essentials.jpg Hearing Care https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6818ef471458533813b6fe5b/1746464597440-TSHSE9MRKBV87ALJLHWD/Tinnitus+1.jpg Hearing Care - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6818ef471458533813b6fe5b/1746464597451-VCIX2KHY7UYCQCKW8H0A/Hearing+Protection+1+-+Tools+%26+DIY.jpg Hearing Care - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6818ef471458533813b6fe5b/1746464597437-4BDJB0D04ZZZJMYCH52Q/Hearing+Test+2.jpg Hearing Care https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6818ef471458533813b6fe5b/1746464597448-6ISPJCBLVEWCIDIV1KZM/Ear+Wax+Removal+%28lifestyle%29.jpg Hearing Care https://www.latimereyecare.co.uk/services-1 daily 0.75 2025-05-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6818ef471458533813b6fe5b/1746464598521-4ZW107Z32AMYD678TKEE/contact+lens+on+finger+2.jpg Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6818ef471458533813b6fe5b/1746464598513-JCS4KWFUNV44MOBDZGPJ/Spex+on+blanket.jpg Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6818ef471458533813b6fe5b/1746464598517-TNBC9GMEP6O7N5QOVTNR/eyeexamination.jpg Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6818ef471458533813b6fe5b/1746464598534-YC41ZB5VG3B7JD3MHNC5/Hoya+MIYOSMART+Email+banner+600x421+B+B2C+.jpg Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6818ef471458533813b6fe5b/1746464598538-2RZUP06TDZKU0RNJUZQU/infanteyetest+%281%29.jpg Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6818ef471458533813b6fe5b/1746464598525-3SCF70AQ2XOBV5GFPPTL/fixing+spectacle+arm+with+screwdriver+smaller.jpg Services https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6818ef471458533813b6fe5b/1746464598529-NB414HK3JWKKIJ3Q6S8P/Healthy+OCT+B+scan.jpeg Services https://www.latimereyecare.co.uk/eyeexaminations daily 0.75 2025-05-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6818ef471458533813b6fe5b/1746464599620-UIWHJYXAEM38UMDNM7Q6/eyeexamination.jpg Eye Examinations - Eye Examinations At Latimer Eye Care we will carry out a thorough eye examination either privately or funded by the NHS.
