The doctor recommended special glasses for the child, or alternatively, night lenses. But I have big doubts about the lenses; opinions are conflicting.
Which one would you choose?! 8-16 (17) 11-19 (20)

My lens is a Stellest analog. I already see results.

My nephew had night lenses, and his vision has recovered very well.

Which child? The 11-year-old?

Lida It's not recovering. It's stopping its progression.

Lida So I misunderstood. But they went for an eye check-up after the lenses. Their vision is 100%.

Lida Of course, 100%)) You know how night lenses work? In the morning, you take them off and see 100%. They change the cornea overnight. But by evening, Cinderella's carriage turns back into a pumpkin 😉 Lenses don't cure. They can slightly improve vision by relieving eye strain. But if you had myopia, it will remain. It just won't progress further. Which is also a plus for preserving vision. It's one thing to have -2.5, for example, and another to have -5.

Lida Thank you so much for explaining it so clearly. I didn't know that.

Lida Overall, these are expensive, of course. And you might not need them for everyday use. But if your vision has already deteriorated significantly, and your growth hasn't stopped – they are highly recommended. Because it's precisely during growth spurts that vision also drops sharply

Lida Yes. Something around 50-60, they cost one pair

Lida 50-60 seems too expensive. On average, it costs 30-35 here. Plus, skincare products.

My older daughter used night lenses from 4th grade until she was 18. Her vision was 100% during the day. She has myopia and astigmatism, -5. Her vision loss stopped, and she was comfortable with the lenses. This year, she had laser correction.

Lida Everything is included there: the examination and the lenses.

My daughter has been wearing night lenses for a year and a half, and her progression has stopped. She puts them in and takes them out quickly, and her daytime vision is 100%. Of course, there are occasional problems with them, like cornea inflammation, but it's not frequent. We've only had it happen once.
Before the lenses, she wore glasses, but they didn't help.
