Clearer Vision Now,
Healthier Eyes Later
Nearsightedness is about more than a blurry whiteboard.
Each year a child’s prescription climbs, so does their long-term risk of serious eye disease. Ordinary single-vision glasses sharpen what they see right now, but they do nothing to change the direction their eyes are heading.
Slow Your Child's Myopia
As a child’s nearsightedness worsens year after year, each increase in diopters heightens their long-term risk of developing severe eye conditions. While conventional single-vision glasses provide clear sight for today, they fail to halt the underlying progression.
Stellest® lenses offer a different approach by correcting vision immediately while simultaneously signaling the eye to slow the elongation that drives myopia forward.
BACKED BY CLINICAL RESULTS
71%
less myopia progression over two years than ordinary single-vision lenses (FDA trial)
67%
greater slowing when the lenses are worn 12 or more hours every day
53%
slower eye elongation across the two-year FDA study
30%
lower risk of reaching high myopia over five years of wear
WHY CHOOSE STELLEST®
Just Like Regular Glasses
The lenslets are all but invisible. Classmates and adults simply see a normal, stylish pair of glasses — not a medical device.
Crisp Vision for Reading
A clear central zone keeps distance and near vision sharp for reading, whiteboards, and screens, so nothing gets in the way of learning.
Built for an Active Kid
Worn exactly like everyday glasses — no lenses to insert, no cleaning routines, and no limits on the sports and play they love.
FDA-Authorized for Myopia
The only eyeglass lens granted FDA market authorization for slowing myopia progression, supported by the highest bar of U.S. clinical evidence.
Biggest Impact Early On
The youngest wearers, ages 6–8, gained the most — more than 1.00D less myopia and 0.37mm less eye growth over two years compared with single-vision wearers.
Lifelong Eye Health
Every diopter of myopia avoided by adulthood meaningfully lowers the lifetime risk of glaucoma, cataracts, retinal detachment, and myopic maculopathy.
WHO STELLEST® IS FOR
Stellest® suits many children. Our Lake Lanier Eye Care doctors weigh your child’s prescription, age, and how quickly their myopia is changing to decide whether it’s the right fit.
Ages 6–18
Made for school-age children with still-developing eyes; the earlier treatment begins, the better it tends to work.
A Confirmed Myopia Diagnosis
Children already diagnosed as nearsighted, whose prescriptions climb from one year to the next, are the strongest fit.
At-Risk (Pre-Myopia)
Newer evidence suggests Stellest® may also postpone myopia from developing in children who are at risk.
Low to High Prescriptions
Appropriate across mild to strong myopia — eligibility is confirmed at your child's consultation.
Ready for Full-Time Wear
The lenses deliver the most when they're your child's main, all-day pair of glasses.
WEARING GUIDE
Stellest® lenses slot into your child’s day — classroom to playground — with no extra steps and nothing to give up.
1
All day, every day.
Target at least 12 hours a day, seven days a week — how consistently they're worn directly drives how well they work.
2
Keep them the main pair.
These should be the glasses your child reaches for everywhere — school, home, outdoors, and activities.
3
Come in once a year.
We'll measure your child's eye length and prescription annually to check progress and fine-tune the plan.
4
Stay the course.
Myopia control is a long game — keep going as recommended, since the benefit builds year over year.
5
Reach out anytime.
If something feels off or the fit isn't right, bring them back in — we're with you through the whole journey.

“I had the best experience at Lake Lanier Eyecare! I was immediately greeted by two friendly ladies who went over my benefits and cost for the day, and it was only a moment before I was taken back to start my eye exam. Everything was explained to me fully while it was being done. It was my first time seeing Dr. Black and he was thorough, patient and answered all my questions. Great service with a personality! 100% recommend!”
Kayla S.
“Great experience. Everyone from the front desk staff to everyone in the back doing tests are professional and friendly. Dr. Black made sure to find the perfect fit for my contact’s. He listen to every issue I had and addressed it.
This is a must come to place for your eye problems. Happy I made the switch.”
James C.
“What a fantastic experience. Everyone here is friendly, and professional. Dr. Kapoor was a wealth of knowledge. My daughter and I went together, both with different issues, and he took the time to answer our questions. From the front desk to the selection of glasses, to the picking up of our classes was 5/5. Every touch point was easy. The atmosphere is light and cheery.”
