Finally There are lenses for children's myopia that, in addition to ensuring excellent correction, offer several additional advantages. They are the Essilor® Stellest™ Lenses capable of:
- guide the growth of the eye
- slow the progression of myopia
- reduce the risk of complications in adulthood.
All this is possible thanks to the innovative technology H.A.L.T. by Essilor® whereby each Stellest™ lens is made up of over 1000 invisible microlenses. (Focus in the next paragraph).
After years of experimentation and many enthusiastic feedbacks from parents, children and eye care professionals, today it is possible to order the Stellest™ Lenses also in Italy in the best optical centers and of course from us, in Corso Roma 60 in Brindisi.
Before describing the lenses in detail, let's define together: "What does it mean to be short-sighted".
In the eyes of short-sighted people, light rays concentrate before the retina, rather than on the retina; this causes distance vision to be reduced and objects to appear blurry. New sedentary and digital lifestyles contribute to making this defect increasingly widespread. Suffice it to say that today, in 2022, over 30% of the Italian population is short-sighted.
Let's now seehow Essilor® Stellest™ lenses work and how they slow down myopia.
