Myopia management can feel intimidating when you first start. Many clinicians worry about complex prescriptions, difficult lens designs, and whether the treatment will even work.

If we could genetically predict myopia progression… would you test every patient?

Can ortho-k really be “easy” — or are we skipping the fundamentals?

In Part 2 of this series, host Matthew Herzberg sits down with Dr. Anith Pillai and Dr. Matthew Martin to break down real trans-limbal ortho-k cases, focusing on the decisions, mistakes, and design adjustments that determine success or failure.

In Part 1 of this two-part series, host Matthew Herzberg is joined by Dr. Anith Pillai and Dr. Matthew Martin to break down trans-limbal ortho-k—what it is, what it is not, and why it’s quietly transforming how experienced clinicians approach adult, hyperopic, and high-challenge cases.

In this episode of The Myopia Mindset, host Matthew Herzberg is joined by Dr. Ashley Tucker and Dr. Kevin Chan, co-editors of Review of Myopia Management, to break down the most important myopia management stories of 2025.

In this episode Matthew Herzberg brings together a panel of leading voices in myopia management to tackle one of the most difficult—and most important—topics in pediatric care: visual hygiene.

An 11-year longitudinal study doesn’t just confirm the clinical value of orthokeratology—it explicitly acknowledges the real-world impact of myopia on productivity, lifestyle, and life trajectory.

In this episode of The Myopia Mindset, host Matthew Herzberg sits down with a Tony Sommer for an honest, clinician-first conversation about what “all hands on deck” really means in myopia care.

Post-LASIK corneas demand different rules — and most failures happen before the lens is ever ordered. In this essential edition episode of Myopia Mindset, the focus is squarely on Post-LASIK Ortho-K — and why these cases fail long before lens design ever begins.

In this Q&A section from the episode - Orthokeratology Fundamentals: "Diameter, Design & Myopia Control | Expert Roundtable" of the Myopia Mindset. Host Matthew Herzberg is joined by global leaders in myopia management and orthokeratology to break down the most overlooked elements of ortho-k lens design.

We are showcasing Dr. Zachary Holland and Dr. Joelle Holland, two unique practice styles, two different fitting philosophies, and one shared mission: transform the landscape of myopia management.

Optometry and ophthalmology have a complicated past — but the future looks completely different. Recently both optometry (via the AAOMC) and ophthalmology (via AAPOS) have vocalized public positions on managing pediatric progressive myopia.

Learn how ethnicity, age, environment, and axial length all play critical roles in predicting progression—and why sometimes the most important choice is knowing when not to treat.

In this episode, the myopia management community is calling for the formal recognition of myopia as a chronic, progressive disease. The AAOMC (American Academy of Orthokeratology and Myopia Control) highlights a major regulatory gap in the U.S., where the FDA’s device division has approved multiple tools to slow myopia progression, but the drug division has yet to recognize or authorize pharmaceutical options such as SYD-101 low-dose atropine — despite growing global momentum and strong clinical evidence.

Dr. Thanh Mai shares how he went from failed cold starts to building four thriving myopia practices using mindset, systems, and storytelling.

Are patients slipping through the cracks in your myopia management practice? Dr. Grant Miller and Dr. Justin Kwan join Matthew Herzberg to reveal how small communication leaks and system gaps cost practices big — and how to fix them fast.

How do the best Ortho-K clinics avoid endless re-fits and keep patients happy? In this episode of The Myopia Mindset, host Matthew Herzberg sits down with experienced Ortho-K clinicians (Dr. Paul Levine and Dr. Matthew Martin) to unpack real-world troubleshooting, the new-patient experience, team training, and how to build a reliable specialty workflow.

Pioneers like Randy Kojima shaped myopia management one topography map at a time. Discover how Ortho-K evolved from the ‘wild west’ of contact lens fitting into one of the most powerful tools in modern eye care. Randy Kojima has helped shape how we understand and teach myopia management — from the early days of orthokeratology to cutting-edge topography and lens design.
