Myopia Management FAQs
Myopia management uses certain treatments and technologies to slow or even halt your child's myopia progression. Our myopia control program in Cherry Creek is unique as we have the latest technology and experience to ensure your child's vision remains stable and healthy for years to come.
Myopia is more than just poor vision. Childhood myopia raises the risk of developing sight-threatening eye diseases later in life, such as glaucoma, macular degeneration, and cataracts. Speak to your eye doctor about the best ways to minimize your child's risk.
Myopia can begin as early as 6 and will usually progress until roughly age 20. The longer it progresses, and the higher the prescription, the greater your child's risk of sight-threatening eye conditions later in life.
For optimal results, myopia management should be started as soon as possible. That said, myopia control can help children and teens of all ages.

My wife had an incredibly frustrating experience here trying to get a simple pair of contact lenses.... Show More After multiple failed attempts to get her prescription right — despite her clearly explaining that the lenses were not working — the staff seemed more interested in insisting that their numbers were correct rather than actually listening to the patient.
Instead of acknowledging the issue or offering real solutions, they resorted to gaslighting her by claiming that her vision was perfectly fine at 20/20 — even though she could clearly tell her vision was off and uncomfortable. It felt dismissive, unprofessional, and honestly insulting to be told that what she was experiencing wasn’t real.
We expected care and accuracy — not attitude and deflection. We will definitely be taking our business elsewhere and recommend others think twice before trusting this place with their vision needs.
Edit: After posting this review, Dr. Sumner personally reached out to us and took the time to make things right. We genuinely appreciate that they cared enough to follow up and resolve the situation. It’s clear that they value their patients and are willing to correct mistakes when they happen. That effort meant a lot to us.

I definitely recommend Sumner Vision.
