Myopia control lenses are designed to adopt different patterns in the peripheral parts of the lens that focus light in front of the retina to act as a stop signal for eye growth, resulting in reduced myopia progression.
Understanding Myopia and Its Implications
Myopia, commonly known as nearsightedness, is a growing global health concern.It occurs when the eye grows too long from front to back, or when the cornea is too curved. This causes light entering the eye to focus in front of the retina instead of directly on it, resulting in blurred distance vision.
The primary symptoms include difficulty seeing distant objects clearly, frequent squinting, and eye strain. The prevalence of myopia has been rising at an alarming rate, particularly among children and young adults. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), it is estimated that by 2050, nearly half of the world’s population will be affected by myopia. This significant increase underscores the urgent need for effective myopia control strategies, including the use of myopia control lenses.
The implications of myopia extend beyond simple vision correction. High myopia, defined as a prescription of -6.00 diopters or more, increases the risk of serious eye conditions such as retinal detachment, glaucoma, and macular degeneration. These conditions can lead to permanent vision loss if not properly managed. Therefore, controlling the progression with myopia control lenses is crucial to reduce the risk of these complications and preserve long-term eye health.
The Role of Myopia Control Lenses
Myopia control lenses are specially designed to slow down the progression of myopia in children and young adults. These lenses work by altering the way light enters the eye, thereby reducing the stimuli that cause the eye to elongate. The Growing Need for Myopia Control
The increasing prevalence of myopia is attributed to several factors, including increased near-work activities (such as reading and screen time) and reduced time spent outdoors. Hence, the need for effective myopia control strategies is more critical than ever. Parents, educators, and healthcare providers must be aware of the importance of early myopia management and the available options, including myopia control lenses.
Introducing Essilor® Stellest™ Lenses
The Essilor Stellest lenses are a cutting-edge solution in the field of myopia control. Developed after years of research and clinical trials, these lenses utilis e advanced technology to provide clear vision while slowing the progression of myopia. The Stellest®lenses feature the H.A.L.T. (Highly Aspherical Lenslet Target) technology, which consists of a constellation of aspherical lenslets spread across 11 rings on the lens. This design creates a volume of myopic defocus in front of the retina, which has been shown to significantly reduce the progression of myopia.
Clinical studies have demonstrated that children wearing Essilor® Stellest™ lenses experienced a 67% reduction in myopia progression compared to those wearing single-vision lenses. This impressive result highlights the effectiveness of Stellest® lenses in managing myopia and protecting long-term eye health.
