When we first learned about progressive myopia at https://myvisioncare.org/blog/progressive-myopia, I was really worried. That site explained the condition and treatments better than our first doctor did. We ended up switching to a specialist who put my daughter on low-dose atropine eye drops and my son on those ortho-k lenses that reshape the cornea overnight. Both treatments have worked really well for us - their prescriptions have barely changed in the past year. Definitely get a second opinion if your current doctor isn't discussing all the options
