  • Our hospital's policy on patient harassment

    Nagoya Eye Clinic (hereinafter referred to as "our clinic") strives to provide the best medical services by treating patients and their families sincerely and in response to their trust and expectations. However, some patients and their families who receive treatment, or those related to them, make demands that go beyond the bounds of common sense, or engage in verbal or physical actions that deny the dignity of our staff, violence, sexual harassment, etc., which are serious problems that lead to a deterioration of the work environment and clinical environment (these verbal and physical actions of patients and their families are called "pay harassment"). Our clinic will not tolerate pay harassment, and will take a firm stance against these nuisances in order to respect and protect the human rights of not only our staff, but also other patients and their families.

[Dr. Miho Inagaki] We are entering an era where we "prevent" childhood myopia from progressing.

In recent years, childhood myopia has been increasing year by year, and it is becoming clear that it is not just a matter of "difficulty seeing," but is also deeply related to the risk of future eye diseases such as glaucoma and myopic maculopathy. Therefore, it is now very important to "prevent the progression" of myopia. The period when myopia progresses the most is roughly between the ages of 7 and 12, during elementary school. The current trend is different from when parents and grandparents were children.
Our clinic offers several treatment options aimed at slowing the progression of myopia. These include eye drops such as Rejuceamini (a low-concentration atropine), orthokeratology (wearable during sleep to correct daytime vision while slowing progression), and Mysight (daily multifocal soft contact lenses worn during the day). We can tailor treatment options to your child's lifestyle. We also offer red light therapy, which has gained attention recently and is becoming a popular new treatment option.
Furthermore, from June 2026, eyeglasses specifically for myopia management (so-called myopia management eyeglasses) will also be approved domestically, making them suitable for younger children and those who have difficulty wearing contact lenses.
It is important to continue any treatment long-term. Each treatment has its own indications and characteristics, and it is crucial to choose the method that is right for each child. At our clinic, we conduct thorough examinations and explanations, and work with families to consider the best option. If you have any concerns about your child's eyesight, please do not hesitate to consult us.
Through lectures and information dissemination in the community, I have conveyed the importance of "protecting children's eyes." The ability to see is the foundation of learning and growth. I will continue to dedicate myself to daily medical practice in order to protect the visual function of children who represent the future.
