Rodenstock’s MyCon lenses are now available in ColorMatic and Polarised options.
As part of the company’s ‘B.I.G. vision for all’ philosophy, Rodenstock is seeking to create the sharpest vision possible for everyone, including children.
It launched the MyCon myopia control lens in March 2023 featuring peripheral defocus areas placed to the sides of the lens – where they are reported to slow myopia progression the most – leaving the main vision zones of the lens undisturbed for sharp vision.
An independent clinical study examining myopia progression in Caucasian children over a five-year period has shown that myopia control lenses, built on the technological principles the MyCon lens is based on, are effective in reducing the progression of myopia.
“Whether a child is slightly myopic or highly myopic, Rodenstock MyCon lenses help prevent further myopia progression,” the company said.
“Rodenstock MyCon lenses are available in index 1.5, 1.6, 1.67, and 1.74, which make the lenses both thinner and sleeker than many other myopia lenses on the market and well suited to high prescriptions. In addition to ColorMatic and Polarised, MyCon is also available tinted and with all Rodenstock coatings.”
