Quick question for anyone who knows — does myopia always keep getting worse? Or does it sometimes level off? I’m asking because my son’s glasses need updating every year, and I’m starting to worry.
My oldest had the same pattern. I didn’t know what was going on until I read more about progressive myopia through this article https://myvisioncare.org/blog/progressive-myopia. It helped me understand why his eyesight kept changing and what we could do differently. We've since changed some habits at home and he’s had more stable vision over the last year.
It depends on the person, really. For some, it stabilizes during teenage years, but for others, it keeps changing. If it's shifting fast, it might be progressive.
