How MiSight Lenses Can Benefit Your Child’s Eye Health

As more children spend time on digital screens and indoors, myopia is becoming increasingly common. Left untreated, myopia can progress rapidly and increase the risk of serious eye conditions later in life. At Central DuPage Vision Center, we are proud to offer a proactive solution: MiSight 1 Day contact lenses. These FDA approved lenses are specifically designed to slow the progression of myopia in children while providing clear vision and comfort throughout the day.

What Are MiSight 1 Day Contact Lenses?

MiSight 1 Day lenses are soft, single-use contact lenses developed for children with myopia. Unlike traditional lenses that simply correct blurry distance vision, MiSight lenses are clinically proven to both correct vision and slow the progression of myopia in children aged 8 to 12 at the initiation of treatment. These lenses work through a dual-focus optical design, which helps to redirect how light focuses on the retina, an approach that targets the underlying cause of myopic progression.

The Long-Term Benefits of MiSight Lenses

Slowing myopia progression during childhood has important long-term implications for your child’s eye health. High levels of myopia can increase the risk of eye diseases such as retinal detachment, glaucoma, cataracts, and macular degeneration. By reducing the rate of progression, MiSight lenses help protect your child’s future vision and overall eye health.

Convenient and Comfortable for Children

MiSight lenses are daily disposable lenses, meaning there is no need for cleaning or storage. This convenience makes them ideal for children and parents alike. The lenses are designed to be easy for children to handle, and many parents report that their children quickly adapt to wearing them. We provide comprehensive training to ensure your child feels confident and comfortable wearing their new lenses.

Proven Results with Ongoing Support

In clinical studies, children who wore MiSight lenses experienced an average reduction of myopia progression by 59 percent over a three-year period. Our team closely monitors each patient’s progress through regular eye exams and follow-up visits, adjusting the treatment plan as needed to ensure optimal results.
