Dry, irritated eyes are more than just an occasional nuisance. For many, they can be a sign of a chronic condition known as dry eye syndrome. While it's common to try over-the-counter solutions, persistent symptoms may indicate a deeper issue that requires professional care. At Capitol Eye Care Center Optometry, we help patients identify the root cause of their symptoms and provide advanced treatments to restore comfort and protect long-term eye health.

If your child has been diagnosed with myopia (nearsightedness), you’re not alone. Many families in Fremont and surrounding areas, are facing the same challenge, especially as screen time and indoor activities become more common. As parents, we all want to give our children the best opportunities for success—whether in school, sports, or everyday life. That’s why finding an effective myopia control option is so important.

As parents, we do everything we can to protect our children’s health. But when it comes to their vision, changes can sometimes go unnoticed until they start struggling in school or squinting at distant objects. Myopia has become increasingly common in children, and if left unchecked, it tends to worsen over time. There are different ways to slow it down, and one of the most promising treatments is low-dose atropine eye drops.

Myopia is a growing concern, especially among children and young adults. As screen time increases and outdoor activities decrease, more people are experiencing difficulty seeing distant objects clearly. One effective way to manage myopia progression is through orthokeratology (Ortho-K)—a non-surgical, FDA-approved treatment that gently reshapes the cornea while you sleep.
