NZ-designed contact lens slows myopia progression

29 March, 2010

A daily disposable soft contact lens has been designed in NZ to correct vision and at the same time slow the progression of myopia in children and teenagers. This contact lens is now being manufactured and is commercially available, initially only in Hong Kong. Myopia has become a major public health issue in many parts of the world with the incidence of myopia in children at over 80% in some Asian countries. Retinal degeneration associated with the abnormal elongation of the eye in myopia is already the major cause of blindness in these countries.
