Advanced Vision Protection for Children with Stellest® Lenses
At Urban Eyes in Kirkland, we’re committed to helping children see clearly today while protecting their vision for the future. That’s why we’re proud to offer Stellest® lenses—a breakthrough innovation in myopia control that goes beyond standard prescription glasses.
Nearsightedness, or myopia, is becoming increasingly common in children and often progresses as they grow. Stellest® lenses are designed to correct vision and slow the progression of myopia using advanced optical science, giving parents a proven way to safeguard their child’s long-term eye health.
How Stellest® Lenses Work
Stellest® lenses use a unique constellation of tiny aspherical lenslets arranged around a clear central zone. This design creates what’s called a “myopic defocus” signal, which gently guides how the eye grows—helping to reduce the rate of myopia progression over time.
Unlike regular glasses that simply correct blurry vision, Stellest® lenses actively support healthy eye development. In clinical studies, children who wore Stellest® lenses full-time experienced up to a 67% slower progression of myopia compared to those wearing standard lenses.
The result is clearer sight now and a significantly lower risk of developing high myopia, which can lead to more serious eye conditions later in life.
At Urban Eyes, we pair Stellest® lenses with our specialized diagnostic technology to deliver truly personalized myopia management. Our doctors use precise measurements—including axial length testing, which tracks the actual length of your child’s eye—to monitor and manage how their vision changes over time.
This advanced testing allows us to tailor every treatment plan for the best possible results, ensuring your child receives the same level of care found at leading myopia management centers.
Most general eye exams don’t include axial length measurement, but at Urban Eyes, we believe it’s essential for truly effective myopia control.
