Introducing the SOLIX OCT: See More. Know More. Care Better!

At our practice, we're always looking for ways to provide the best possible care for your eyes. That's why advanced technology like the SOLIX OCT is so exciting!

What is an OCT?

Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is a noninvasive imaging technology that creates detailed, cross-sectional images of structures inside the eye, helping your eye care provider evaluate your eye health.

What makes the SOLIX OCT special?

Detailed Imaging: Helps visualize important structures of the retina and optic nerve.

Early Detection: Supports the evaluation and monitoring of conditions such as glaucoma and retinal diseases.

Advanced Analysis: Provides detailed images to help your provider assess changes in eye health over time.

Proactive Eye Care: Gives us another valuable tool to help make informed decisions about your vision and eye health.

Your vision is precious, and comprehensive eye care is about more than just seeing clearly on an eye chart.

Ask us about OCT imaging at your next eye exam!

Is Your Child’s Vision Getting Worse?

👓 Does your child need a stronger glasses prescription every year?
If so, it may be more than simply “needing new glasses.”
Myopia (nearsightedness) often begins during childhood and can continue to progress as the eyes grow. The good news? There are evidence-based approaches designed to help slow myopia progression.

Myopia control may include options such as specialty contact lenses, specially designed eyeglasses, and other treatment approaches.

The first step is understanding what’s happening with your child’s eyes.

📅 Regular comprehensive eye exams can help detect changes early.

Parents: Have you noticed your child’s prescription changing frequently?

Parents, have you heard of myopia?

Welcome to Myopia Mondays where we will discuss all things Myopia!

You may know it as nearsightedness, but there’s a lot more to myopia than simply needing glasses.

Over the next few weeks, we’re going to be talking all about myopia—especially when it comes to kids and how we can help manage its progression.

We’ll be breaking down things like:

✨ What exactly is myopia?
📈 Why does myopia keep getting worse?
🌳 Can spending more time outdoors help?
🔍 What signs should parents look for?
👓 What is myopia control, and what options are available?
❤️ Why does managing myopia matter for your child’s long-term eye health?

We want to make these topics simple, understandable, and useful for parents—without all the confusing eye-care jargon!

So follow along over the next few weeks, and let’s take a closer look at myopia and what you can do to help your child see clearly today and protect their vision for the future.

Every Pediatric Exam at Best In Sight includes a free myopia screening that can track progression over time leading us to the best treatment options.

And if you have a question about myopia, drop it in the comments! 👇 We may answer it in one of our upcoming posts.
