Problem
Childhood myopia, or nearsightedness, is increasing at an alarming rate, leading to struggles in school and activities due to poor vision. Traditional glasses only compensate for blurry distance vision without addressing the underlying issue of eye elongation, which can increase the risk of serious eye diseases later in life.
Solution
Treehouse Eyes offers a comprehensive myopia management program designed to slow or stop the progression of nearsightedness in children. Utilizing the Treehouse Vision System, a proprietary clinical protocol, Treehouse Eyes doctors develop personalized treatment plans that may include customized contact lenses (worn overnight or during the day) and/or prescription eye drops. These non-invasive treatments aim to reshape the cornea or alter eye growth, reducing the risk of future eye diseases associated with high myopia. The Treehouse Vision System has demonstrated a 78% decrease in myopia progression in the first year of treatment.
Target Audience
The primary target audience is parents of children with myopia or those at risk of developing myopia, as well as eye care professionals seeking advanced myopia management solutions.
