Slow myopia progression in children with specialty glasses.
How does it work?
There are several breakthroughs in eyeglass lens technology, by several manufacturers that show promising results at providing myopia control.
Encourage your child to wear their Essilor® Stellest® spectacle lenses consistently. It is recommended that your child wears the lenses for a minimum of 10 hours per day for at least 6 days per week.
We believe children’s vision is crucial. This is why we have been working for many years on a ground-breaking technology to fight myopia. We are making available the first FDA approved design called the Stellest® lens.
HOYA Vision Care
By 2050, half of the world’s population—around 5 billion people—could be living with myopia.² The condition progresses fastest in children under 10,³ especially those with high myopia. More than just a vision issue, myopia can impact a child’s confidence, independence, and daily life.
At HOYA Vision Care, we are committed to tackling this global challenge with innovative solutions like MiYOSMART, helping children see clearly and live fuller, more confident lives.
An innovative spectacle lens
MiYOSMART based on revolutionary Defocus Incorporated Multiple Segments (D.I.M.S.) Technology was developed in cooperation with The Hong Kong Polytechnic University in 2014. MiYOSMART is easy to fit, just like regular single vision lens. There are no limitations for the frame choice.
In 2018, the MiYOSMART lens won the Gold Prize, Grand Award & Special Gold Award International Exhibition of Inventions of Geneva, Switzerland. In 2020, it won the Silmo d’Or Award in the Vision category at the Silmo Paris Optical Fair.
