Dr. Pintor: It depends on the age of the patient. If it's five year-old or a six year-old, yes, I would consider myopia management a potential avenue to take. If the patient is 12 or 14 years old, the parents are not short-sighted and and the patient engages in extensive outdoor activity, then perhaps we do not need to worry. However, if both parents are short-sighted, it's a different story; again, it depends on their refraction, lifestyle and so on. I may recommend a follow-up in three to six months to check for any changes and if I already then see an increase, I will start a conversation around myopia management.
