Myo Stellest Lenses

Why Choose Myo Stellest lenses?

Myo Stellest lenses are a type of specialized lens developed by Essilor, designed primarily for children and adolescents to help manage myopia (nearsightedness) progression.

Myo Stellest lenses combine two technologies:

Central Myopic Correction: The lenses provide clear vision for distance, correcting refractive errors.

Myope Control Technology: This unique design incorporates a special pattern of concentric rings that helps slow down the progression of myopia.

Specially designed for kids

Myo Stellest lenses are specifically aimed at children and young adults, typically those aged 6 to 18, who are at risk of progressive myopia. Research has shown that these lenses can effectively reduce the rate of myopia progression compared to standard single-vision lenses.

Comfort & Aesthetics

Myo Stellest lenses are designed to be comfortable for daily wear and are available in various styles and materials, including options for prescription sunglasses. These lenses can be tailored to the individual needs of the wearer, considering their specific prescription and lifestyle requirements.

Shaw Lens

Shaw lenses can play a role in the management of amblyopia, also known as “lazy eye.” Amblyopia occurs when one eye does not develop proper vision during childhood, often due to factors like misalignment (strabismus) or significant differences in refractive error between the two eyes.

Testing

During an eye exam, optometrists may use Shaw lenses in combination with a phoropter to refine prescriptions and assess how well a patient sees at different distances.

Lens Quality

Shaw lenses are crafted to provide high optical clarity and minimize aberrations, ensuring accurate vision correction.

Customization

They can be customized based on the specific visual needs of the patient, including lens coatings and additional features like blue light filtering.

Patient Comfort

The design of Shaw lenses aims to provide comfort for prolonged use, especially in environments with high visual demands.
