Serve Myopia in a 9 year Old
Hello,
My son had -8.5 Myopia last August and in a regular follow up check last month he was diagnosed with -11.5 in both eyes with a 20/30 vision. My husband has -6D in both eyes...We had second opinions as well and the docs say his eye is healthy and there is no sign of thinning... but with such high prescription will the CRT work? FDA has it approved only till -6D. Could some one please help me if there any options other than being a helpless mom and watching it degrade even more ......?
