ABSTRACT
Pediatric myopia affects more and more children in Asia, USA and other countries. There is no standard protocol for the therapy but pediatric ophthalmologists try to decrease myopia progression using different methods. Myopia in children is more and more frequent and the onset age has decreased over time, leading to a greater chance to progression into high diopters for spectacles or contact lenses and also other ocular complications. Regarding this issue, the aim of this paper was to underline the new therapeutic regimens for correcting and slowing pediatric myopia progression.
