Myopia is a growing epidemic — and glasses alone won't stop it. Fighting Myopia is where Dr. Emil Martirosyan goes beyond the prescription with specialized care for patients and families across North Jersey. Because your vision is worth fighting for.

Protect their vision. Protect their dreams.

Myopia doesn't just mean blurry distance vision. It's a progressive vision condition that worsens as children grow, increasing the risk of serious complications later in life. Screens and limited outdoor time are accelerating it — and glasses alone won't stop it.


At Fighting Myopia in Secaucus, New Jersey, we offer individualized myopia management for children — safe, proven treatments that slow progression, support learning, and protect long-term eye health. We proudly serve children, families, and adult patients across North Jersey. Your child's vision shapes everything. Let's protect it.

Wake up. See clearly.

Orthokeratology (Ortho-K) lenses gently reshape your child's cornea while they sleep — so they wake up with clear, glasses-free vision all day. No surgery. No daytime lenses. Just results.


At Fighting Myopia, Ortho-K is one of our most effective tools for slowing myopia progression in children. Dr. Emil fits each patient with custom lenses designed for their eyes, their prescription, and their lifestyle.


Ortho-K is especially ideal for active kids — no fogged-up glasses during sports, no lost contacts, no interruptions. Whether your child is on a field, in a pool, or at a screen, their vision keeps up with them.

How It Works

Worn only at night, Ortho-K lenses correct vision while your child sleeps and are removed each morning

Safe for Kids

FDA-cleared and clinically proven, with decades of use in pediatric patients worldwide

Proven Results

Studies show Ortho-K can slow myopia progression by up to 50% compared to standard glasses

It often worsens as children grow. Higher levels of myopia increase the risk of serious eye problems later in life because the eye becomes longer and more fragile over time. Early management can help slow progression and protect your child’s long-term vision. 


Thinning of the retina increases the risk of tears, which can lead to detachment, a serious condition that may cause permanent vision loss if not treated quickly. A sudden rise in floaters (black spots or lines) can be a warning sign. 


Eye elongation can damage the macula, the part of the retina responsible for sharp, detailed vision, resulting in vision distortion or loss. 


High myopia increases the risk of glaucoma, a group of eye diseases that damage the optic nerve, often due to increased eye pressure. It's a leading cause of vision loss in older adults. 


People with early-onset severe myopia may develop cataracts, clouding of the eye’s lens, sooner than others. This may be due to reduced nutrient delivery caused by an elongated eyeball.
