Myopia has been on the rise worldwide, especially among children and young adults. While genetics play a role, environmental factors are now known to have a significant impact.

As more children spend time indoors and on digital devices, cases of myopia are on the rise. At Ridgeview Eye Care, we believe in proactive, evidence-based solutions to help protect your child’s vision and overall eye health.

Living with keratoconus or an irregular cornea can make clear, comfortable vision feel out of reach. Fortunately, advancements in contact lens technology have made it possible to manage these conditions more effectively.

As children grow, their eyes are constantly developing and their daily habits can have a big impact on their vision for years to come. Let’s explore why outdoor play is important, how it relates to myopia, and what you can do if you’re concerned about your child’s eyesight.

If you’ve recently started wearing Ortho-K (orthokeratology) lenses or are considering them as a non-surgical vision correction option, one of the most common questions is: How soon will I see results?

At Ridgeview Eye Care, we’re committed to helping our patients recognize the early warning signs of eye conditions that can impact long-term vision. One such condition is keratoconus, a progressive disorder that alters the shape of the cornea and can significantly affect visual clarity.

Myopia is a growing concern among children and teens, with more cases being diagnosed each year. While glasses and contacts can help with blurry distance vision, they do not stop myopia from worsening over time.

If you live in Olathe or Lenexa, Kansas, and suffer from dry eyes, you’re not alone. Dry eye disease is a common yet often frustrating condition that can make everyday tasks like reading, driving, or working on a computer uncomfortable.

For those who struggle to find comfort and clear vision with traditional contact lenses, specialty lenses like bi-toric and hybrid designs offer a game-changing solution. These innovative lenses are tailored to address unique eye needs, providing superior comfort and optimal vision correction.

Keratoconus can significantly affect vision and quality of life. As the cornea thins and takes on a cone-like shape, light entering the eye becomes distorted, leading to blurry or impaired vision. At Ridgeview Eye Care, we offer specialized contact lens options that can help manage keratoconus and slow its progression.
