Ideally, nutritional support for good eye health should come from natural foods. However, we know it's not always convenient or possible to obtain sufficient amounts of nutrients through diet alone. Your SDEC eye doctor knows your eye-health history and can recommend the appropriate high-quality supplements to support your ocular health and tear functioning.

Why Families are Choosing Stellest® Eyeglass Lenses for Myopia Control (Nearsightedness)

At Southern Dutchess Eye Care, we offer several options to help slow the progression of your child’s myopia (nearsightedness), with many parents now choosing Stellest eyeglass lenses.

This newer option stands out by combining clear, everyday vision correction with long-term myopia management. Children wear Stellest lenses just like regular glasses, while parents appreciate the added benefit of helping protect their child’s eye health over time.

While stronger prescriptions may seem routine, higher levels of myopia are associated with an increased risk of conditions such as open-angle glaucoma, retinal detachment, and myopic macular degeneration later in life.

If you’re looking for a solution that goes beyond simply updating your child’s prescription each year, schedule an eye exam to discuss your options. (845) 896-6700.
