Short-Sightedness (Myopia) Treatment
A common eye condition in which distance vision is impaired. The eyes visual habit is to be stuck around the detail of things in close range, not seeing things clearly further a field or bigger picture.
Find Out MoreWhat Is Short Sightedness?
Short sightedness is the opposite of long sightedness.
Near-vision (ability to see things up close) is clear, and your long-vision (ability to see things in the distance) is blurry.
Short-sightedness often develops in early childhood and can cause vision to change a lot over periods of time.
Why does Short Sightedness occur?
Light entering the eyes focuses in front of, instead of exactly on the retina, and the distance vision becomes blurry.
Identifying words on distant signs and boards difficult, particularly in poor lighting conditions.
There is a focus on what is close and within a confined space. Focussing further away at a picture further a field is not where the brain wants to see.
Diagnosis and Short Sightedness Treatment
- Retinoscopy – a technique to determine short sightedness
- Autorefraction – a computerised machine to determine short sightedness
- Counselling – explaining the issue and looking at its treatment in new possibilities
- Lens and prism using balanced binocular integration
- Supporting the visual system with sequential lens and prism interaction and integration
- Periodical reviews – normally 6 months or stated otherwise

We take a unique approach to vision and eye health by holistically and dynamically assessing vision, mind and body as a complete unit, working on conscious and subconscious levels.
Our unique methodology, Quantum (Energy) Photo (Light) Somatics (Body Movement) (QPS) has been developed by Dr Michael Christian. QPS supports Optometry and is an endorsed and accredited field with the IICT (International Institute of Complementary Therapies) myiict.com.
It engages a real time integrative feedback system of many factors, making adjustments, counter checks and further adjustments through the process.
Light uniquely and appropriately refracted through lens and prism combinations support and change factors such as breath, posture, balance, muscles, energy, nerves, emotions, movement and body functions, which in turn aims to positively affect the eyes and vision.
Once we understand the wearers profile, we prescribe balanced, highly customised, activating lens and prism prescriptions. These lenses aim to change the way the wearers eye muscles work while supporting how the brain processes visual information.
Just as you work out your body with weights and movement, the glasses we prescribe act as a personal trainer for your eyes that are designed to work just by wearing them, without the hassle of boring and limited time-consuming eye exercises.
The lenses aim to also encourage improvement of health conditions that are linked to, being caused by or exacerbated by poor vision, while aiming to avoid the usual deterioration of vision commonly experienced by long-term glasses wearers. The eyes affect the mind and body, and the mind and body affect the eyes.Both need optimal support. These links and relationships are thoroughly investigated in depth for each person.
Just as good air, food and water provides integral fuel for the body, good light, presented correctly, provides integral fuel for vision and mind.
The function of your eyes has a flow on effect to the rest of your mind and body. Just as changing any nerve or muscle group in the body does.
Microprism integrative prescriptions are derived by focusing two eyes together in specific binocular refractive patterns for clear perspective and detail discrimination. In Microprism progressive lens manufacturing, the prism is located in unique non-traditional active locations to ensure clear, open, comfortable and dynamic vision. Microprism directional prisms (up, down, in and out summations) are located differently and affect eye muscles, changing eye shape and location and the perception of objects within a space. The internal shift on eye muscles via the incoming prism re-directed light, effects and brings into alignment and balance, how near, distance and perspective are observed. This ideal state of alignment brings ease to the optical, motor and sensory system and has a positive flow on effect to the rest of the body. Light feeds the whole biophotonic transduction system of the body.
