Hi,
I understand your concern for your son. Like him, I inherited my progressive myopia from my mother. I am a few years older than him and my myopia has reached a little over -32.00.My specialist is also unwilling to do surgery of any kind including IOL's for, I believe, similar reasons. My corrected vision is a little limited but I manage fairly well. I hope he can also cope with his situation. Should your researches ever discover anything useful, I would be most grateful to hear from you: ***@****.
Good Luck,
Charles
This is not the type of case I can make recommendations on because it requires an in person exam. He's obviously under the care of ophthalmologists now. You should discuss it with them
