MYOPIA - A GROWING CONCERN
Myopia is more commonly referred to the inability to see objects clearly at a distance. Myopia is on the rise- in its frequency and its severity3. The reason for its escalation has been linked to two factors:
Genetics
Children with one or two myopic parents are more likely to be myopic4
Lifestyle
Children who spend more time on activities like reading or using handheld devises instead of spending time outdoors are more likely to become myopic4
More than just vision correction, Myopia management with MiSight® 1 day contact lenses can help keep your child’s future brilliant.
- Corrects distance vision immediately5
- Can slow myopia progression during their growing years1*
- Offers a comfortable wearing experience6
- Allows you to avoid the worry of losing or breaking glasses
- Accommodates a more active lifestyle6
- Provides children who wear contact lenses a significantly better quality of life than children wearing glasses, especially regarding athletics and appearance5
MiSight®1 day is a soft contact lens that uses ActivControlTM Technology to slow the elongation of the eyes.1 ActivControl™ Technology simultaneously corrects a child's vision while training the eye to resist growing in length.1
