A member asked:
May i know, is there anything we can do to reduce our myopia? (no organic factor)and why some people may get cured from their myopia?thanks.gb.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Surgery is reliable: These would include procedures like LASIK and PRK. There are specialty type contact lenses that you wear while sleeping that temporary reduce myopia while awake. But these are not readily available, uncomfortable during sleep, and the range of correction is lower than the surgical options. Good luck.
