Why choose MiSight® 1 day contact lenses?
Kids lead active, jam-packed lives. But whether they’re playing pretend, riding bikes with their friends, or learning new things at school, myopia (nearsightedness) can make it harder for them to engage in the activities they love. And as they grow, their prescription may get stronger too. Fortunately, your child may be able to benefit from an innovative technology designed to help make life easier and help slow down the progression of myopia: MiSight® 1 day contact lenses from CooperVision.

MiSight® 1 day features that you'll love!
ActivControl® Technology
Clinical studies showed that the innovative technology design corrects and slows the progression of nearsightedness in children by 59%.
The preferred choice
Of children aged 8–15 who had never worn contact lenses before, 90% preferred MiSight® 1 day contact lenses over wearing their glasses and were able to insert and remove the lenses on their own.
Child friendly
Child-friendly, soft contact lenses that are easy to use and supported by rigorous scientific evidence from a 7-year clinical trial.
Convenience
Convenient daily disposable contact lenses no need to clean or store them.
Treatment
Will MiSight® 1 day work for all myopic children?
MiSight® 1 day works for nearly all children with myopia. The majority of children fitted with MiSight® 1 day do not need a stronger prescription by their next annual eye exam.
When should you start treatment?
While early treatment is best, it's never too late to start. Even older children starting with MiSight® 1 day have their myopia progression cut by half.
When should you stop treatment?
MiSight® 1 day works for as long as the child wears them. Treatment benefits continue to accumulate as long as eyes are growing.
What happens when you stop treatment?
MiSight® 1 day benefits are retained after treatment. MiSight® 1 day is the only soft contact lens studied post-treatment. Other interventions, such as atropine, have been shown to produce a rebound effect.
Suitability
Who can wear MiSight® 1 day?
MiSight® 1 day covers nearly 100% of spherical prescriptions for children with myopia.
Sphere: -0.25 to -6.00 (0.25 steps), -6.50 to -10.00 (0.50 steps).
By slowing down myopia progression today, you provide your child with more opportunities tomorrow
