Comprehensive Eye Exams

A comprehensive eye exam evaluates your visual acuity, eye coordination and overall ocular health — screening for conditions like myopia, astigmatism, glaucoma, cataracts and macular degeneration. It's about protecting your vision for years to come, not just updating a prescription.

Myopia Control

Myopia management for children

Myopia — commonly called nearsightedness — is one of the fastest-growing vision problems in children today. The good news is that when it's caught early, it can be slowed. Dr. Bessie Campouris offers proven myopia management programs for children throughout the Phoenix area.

What is myopia?

Myopia means your child can see things up close clearly, but objects far away look blurry. It happens when the eyeball grows slightly too long, so light ends up focusing in front of the retina instead of directly on it — making distant images blurry.

Myopia often starts between ages 6 and 12. Without management, it tends to get worse each year until a child's late teens — and each increase in prescription also increases long-term risk.

Why early intervention matters

Myopia is more than a glasses prescription — it's a medical condition. The more the eye grows, the higher the risk of serious problems later in life, including retinal detachment, glaucoma, and macular degeneration.

Research shows myopia management can slow progression by 50 to 67 percent. Starting treatment early — before the prescription climbs — gives the best results, and if a parent has myopia, a child's risk is significantly higher.

Myopia management options we offer

MiSight® Daily Contact Lenses

The first FDA-approved soft contact lens proven to slow myopia in children. These daily disposables correct your child's vision while a special optical design signals the eye to stop growing as fast — safe, comfortable, and easy for kids to use on their own.

Multifocal Contact Lenses

Soft multifocal lenses built with different zones: the center corrects distance vision, while the outer zones send focused light to the edges of the retina, signaling the eye to slow its growth. A comfortable daytime option for children ready for contacts.

Low-Dose Atropine Eye Drops

Applied once each evening, low-dose atropine is one of the most effective tools for slowing myopia. The concentration used is far lower than the dose used to dilate eyes during an exam, with minimal side effects, and can be combined with other treatments.

Specialty Myopia Control Glasses

For children not yet ready for contact lenses, we offer Essilor® Stellest™ lenses. A clear center zone corrects your child's vision, while rings of tiny lenslets around it signal the eye to slow its growth — a practical, no-maintenance starting point for younger children.

Common Questions

A few things patients ask us

How often should I get a comprehensive eye exam?

For most healthy adults, every one to two years. Annual exams are recommended for contact lens wearers, children, adults over 60, and anyone managing a condition like diabetes that can affect eye health.

What's the difference between an optometrist and an ophthalmologist?

An optometrist (O.D.) provides primary eye care — exams, vision correction, and diagnosis and management of many eye conditions. An ophthalmologist (M.D.) performs eye surgery. We coordinate referrals when surgical or specialist care is needed.

Does Phoenix's climate really affect my eyes?

Yes — low humidity, strong UV exposure, and dust are common triggers for dry eye and irritation here in the Valley. Visit our Eye Health Library to learn how we treat and prevent it.
