Kids lead active, jam-packed lives. But whether they’re playing pretend, riding bikes with their friends, or learning new things at school, myopia (nearsightedness) can make it harder for them to engage in the activities they love. And as they grow, their prescription may get stronger too.
Fortunately, your child may be able to benefit from an innovative technology to help make his or her life easier and help slow down the progression of their myopia MiSight® 1 day contact lenses from CooperVision.
Overview
MiSight® 1 day with ActiveControl® Technology not only correct nearsightedness — they’re also the first soft contact lenses proven to significantly reduce the progression of myopia in children.
When wearing MiSight® 1 day contact lenses, your child can experience clear vision, freedom from glasses and continue to enjoy the activities they love!
Features
MiSight® 1 day features that you'll love!
ActivControl® Technology
Clinical studies showed that the innovative technology design corrects and slows the progression of nearsightedness in children by 59%.
The preferred choice
Of children aged 8-15, who had never worn contact lenses before, 90% preferred MiSight 1 day contact lenses over wearing their glasses and were able to insert and remove MiSight 1 day lenses on their own.
Child friendly
Child-friendly, soft contact lenses that are easy-to-use and supported by rigorous scientific evidence from a 7 year clinical trial.
Convenience
Convenient daily disposable contact lenses—no need to clean or store them.Treatment
MiSight® 1 day works for nearly all children with myopia
The majority of children fit with MiSight® 1 day do not need a stronger prescription by their next annual eye exam.
Even older children starting with MiSight® 1 day have their myopia progression cut by half.
MiSight® 1 day works for as long as the child wears them.
MiSight® 1 day is the only soft contact lens studied post-treatment. Other interventions, such as atropine, have been shown to produce a rebound effect.
Suitability
MiSight® 1 day covers nearly 100% of spherical prescriptions for children with myopia.
