Responding to the growing global issue of high myopia, Hoya Vision Care Australia and New Zealand is expanding its Miyosmart power range, unlocking spectacle lenses for patients with a broader range of negative and cylinder powers.
This power range extension accommodates both high myopia and astigmatism, with a wider span of prescriptions up to a combined power of -13.00D, Hoya said. “This action will increase access to effective and innovative solutions for more myopic children, so they can achieve better vision outcomes.”
With the extension, Miyosmart spectacle lenses are now available in larger lens diameters and with optimised lens edge thickness. “The increased lens diameters mean the lenses can be housed in larger frames, accommodating older children and teenagers with larger pupillary distances, in addition to those who choose these frames for aesthetic reasons,” the company said.
