Understanding short-sightedness

What does short sight mean?

With myopia, distant detail can be harder to see clearly. An eye examination checks your sight and establishes the prescription you need.

Where do glasses come in?

Prescription lenses help your eyes focus so distant objects look clearer. Bring your prescription and we can discuss suitable frames and lenses.

Which lens design?

Short-sightedness describes your focus, rather than a particular lens design. Whether single vision or a multifocal is appropriate depends on the rest of your prescription and your everyday tasks.
