Abstract
AbstractPurpose This talk will present a dedicated spectacle lens design that has indicated to reduce the progression of myopia in a group of Asian children in a randomized and double blind clinical study.Methods In contrast to conventional spectacles lenses for myopes, the ZEISS MyoVision lens uses a special peripheral treatment zone to bring the peripheral focus back or in front of the retina while providing a clear and undisturbed asymmetric central vision. A clinical trial has been conducted to evaluate the performance of this new lens design.Results The combination of a peripheral treatment zone and a clear central viewing zone in a single vision lens show positive results by indicating a reduction of the progression of myopia by 30% on average in Asian children age 6‐12years old with a history of parental myopia while providing stable and clear vision without adaption problems of the wearer.Conclusion This lens has been successfully trialed in a randomized and double blind clinical study on Chinese school children. Modern spectacle lens designs with special treatment zones can lead to a reduction of the progression of myopia. Commercial interest
