Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Unfortunately, there is no proven treatment available for this condition. People have tried various treatments like intraocular pressure reducing drops, or atropine in children. It is a good practice to get your refraction done six-monthly as using improper glasses is a stimulus for eyes to grow more especially in children.
