Global prevalence of myopia<\/h3>\n

By 2050, it is estimated that 5 billion people, or 50% of the world’s population, will be affected by nearsightedness [1]. This condition is increasingly beginning in childhood. <\/p>\n

The innovative MiYOSMART<\/strong> spectacle lens for myopia management in children and adolescents<\/strong> can slow the progression of nearsightedness by an average of 60% [2] or bring it to a complete standstill.<\/p>\n

What is nearsightedness (myopia)?<\/h3>\n

Myopia is a congenital or acquired visual impairment. It occurs, among other things, when the eye grows too quickly and becomes excessively long. In this case, light rays are focused in front of the retina instead of on it. Nearsighted people see distant objects unclearly and blurred, while they can recognize near objects without any problems. An eye test results in negative diopter values<\/strong>, e.g., -1.50 dpt. <\/p>\n

Why is nearsightedness increasing
in children?<\/h3>\n

Nearsightedness is highly likely to continue increasing due to growing digitalization<\/strong> and changes in children’s lifestyles.[3,4] Children use digital devices more, read and learn on PCs, and thus engage in more activities in the near-vision range. At the same time, they spend less time outdoors<\/strong>. Studies show that more time spent outdoors can significantly reduce the risk of nearsightedness.[5]
Genetic predisposition<\/strong> (e.g., nearsightedness of the parents) also plays a role in myopia.[1] <\/p>\n

If nearsightedness in children and adolescents is not corrected, it can lead to permanent visual impairment.<\/strong><\/p>\n

MiYOSMART spectacle lenses counteract
myopia<\/h3>\n

MiYOSMART is the first non-invasive solution specifically developed as a spectacle lens to slow down myopia in children and adolescents between 6 and 18 years of age<\/strong>. A two-year clinical study shows that these special lenses can slow the progression of nearsightedness by an average of 60%<\/strong> [1], thereby protecting your children’s quality of vision and well-being in the long term. <\/p>\n

How MiYOSMART works<\/h3>\n

The MiYOSMART spectacle lens corrects nearsightedness in the central zone like a normal single-vision lens. This means: if your child’s eye test showed a nearsightedness of -1.00 diopters, the MiYOSMART lens has -1.00 diopters in the central zone. <\/p>\n

The surrounding D.I.M.S. area contains tiny segments of +3.5 diopters each. This ensures that eye length growth is not excessively stimulated, thus slowing the progression of myopia. D.I.M.S. stands for “Defocus Incorporated Multiple Segments.” <\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.14.7″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding=”0px||||false|false” sticky_enabled=”0″][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.14.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.14.7″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

The special nature of the lenses is only visible in backlight or upon closer inspection. Otherwise, the lenses do not look any different from a normal single-vision lens to outsiders. <\/p>\n

For the safety of children, MiYOSMART<\/strong> spectacle lenses are particularly impact-resistant, durable, easy to clean<\/strong>, and offer 100% UV protection<\/strong>. Only certified opticians and ophthalmologists work with MiYOSMART spectacle lenses. <\/p>\n
