MiSight 1 day - Parameters and Specs
MiSight 1 day contact lenses from CooperVision are the first daily disposable contact lenses that were approved by the FDA for the management of childhood myopia. A unique lens design featuring ActiveControl has shown in clinical studies, that a child's myopia might progress at a slower rate when wearing MiSight 1 day as compared to wearing eyeglasses or other contact lenses.
The material used in MiSight 1 day is the same base material implemented in CooperVision's Proclear 1-day. It's a non-ionic hydrogel material with a 60% water content.
- A dual focus design with a large central area for vision correction is surrounded by concentric zones of alternating distances and near powers.
- The near power acts as a zone dedicated to slow the progression of myopia.
MiSight has multiple treatment zones implemented as a ring structure that aligns with the pupil of a child to ensure consistent treatment effect in all conditions.
