Myopia (Nearsightedness)

Picture
Myopia or Nearsightedness is the most common visual abnormality in the world.  In the US, >30% of individuals have myopia.  This may seem very high, but is relatively low compared with some of the countries in Asia, which approach nearly 80%!  People who have myopia have a hard time seeing things far away, but typically can see small print up close very well, often even into their 40's, when all the farsighted people finally have to get glasses for the first time.  We call this the "myope's revenge" in eye care!

What our patient's say

"I've been going to Maitland Vision Center since the 80s and have always been happy with the great office staff and Dr. Willson. This week I had my first appointment with Dr. Schott who has taken over after Dr. Willson's retirement and I couldn't be happier with the new guy!  Looking forward to many more years of great care.  (PS: I was disappointed when Dr. Willson phased out his optical (eyeglasses) center some years ago, but was happy to learn that Dr. Schott plans to bring it back.)"
