Contact UsWhat is Myopia?
Slightly more than 40% of the population in America is diagnosed with myopia (nearsightedness), which means it is one of the most widespread refractive vision impairments. Nearsightedness is a refractive error that results in difficulty in or a lack of ability to make out things or images that are distant from the eye. Therefore, far-away objects or focal points may be hazy, or the patient may lack the ability to perceive them altogether.
An individual could develop extreme, moderate, or mild nearsightedness. Those who are nearsighted can usually see very well with near vision but have difficulty seeing distant objects, for example, traffic signs, presentation screens at the office or in the classroom, or movie screens.
For those who have myopia, we have plenty of choices available to address it and help restore your vision. At their practice in Phoenix, AZ, optometrists Dr. Neha Amin LaCorte and Dr. Mary Hardy make diagnoses of sight impairments, like myopia, and offer solutions that are best for your lifestyle. Contact Advanced Vision & Achievement Center to schedule an eye exam if you have noticed changes in your sight or are having trouble seeing from a distance.
What are the Symptoms of myopia?
In the majority of cases, the most pronounced indication of nearsightedness is unclear vision that occurs when trying to focus on objects from a distance. A lot of people can also have other symptoms that stem from constant squinting or eye strain. Eye strain, also known as eye fatigue or asthenopia, could cause aching or dry eyes. Asthenopia might also lead to light sensitivity or soreness in the neck and shoulder muscles. Occasionally, people who already wear prescription lenses for myopia can notice these symptoms. They are a good indication that your lens prescription needs to be updated, and you need to plan an eye exam before long.
Advanced Vision & Achievement Center Reviews
This office is very knowledgeable and kind. They have helped my son's tremendously. Thank you Dr Amin and team!
I love this place so much. I absolutely would recommend this place to anyone with vision care needs. Dr Hardy is collaborative and attentive to your needs. Clear communication is something you don't get at other vision care places but Dr Hardy is on it. They don't overprice contact lenses either! They've even helped me out when I received a defective lens. I cannot recommend Dr Hardy or the staff here enough. 11/10 service, affordability and care if I could rate it that way.
I recently completed a series of vision therapy sessions with Advanced vision and achievement center. Thelma is my mentor for the eye exercises. From the outset, Thelma's friendliness and approachability set a comforting tone for the entire therapy process. Thelma's dedication to her work is evident in her meticulous attention to detail and her genuine concern for her patients' progress. She was incredibly supportive throughout the sessions, always available to assist and encourage me with each exercise. The individualized care and guidance provided by Thelma have made a significant difference in my vision. I have noticed a remarkable improvement in the coordination of my eyes, which has positively impacted my daily life. Dr. Forest and Thelma's contribution to my vision health has been invaluable, and I highly recommend their services to anyone considering vision therapy. Thank you for your exceptional care and for making such a positive difference in my life."
Nice people nice place
Hello, I'm very grateful for the care I've received from Dr. Amin and her staff. My vision has improved after a debilitating accident one year ago. Dr. Amin's expertise and guidance have helped me to make better progress than I imaged. It's been a long road to recovery, but I couldn't have done it without the team at Advanced Vision.

Suffering from vision that is no longer as sharp as it could be can often produce other unwanted issues, for example, migraines and eye strain. Nearsightedness is a very common refractive error that, luckily, is easily treatable for the majority of patients who experience it. Wearing corrective lenses or having refractive laser surgery can drastically enhance the overall well-being of Phoenix, AZ patients.
