FDA Approved

The FIRST and ONLY FDA-approved* soft contact lens proven to slow myopia progression in children, aged 8-12 at the initiation of treatment.

Proven Cases

On average, age-appropriate children wearing MiSight® 1 day contact lenses progressed less than -1.00D over 6 years.

Suitable for young age

Children as young as 8 years old can confidently apply and remove MiSight® 1 day lenses on their own.

Myopia Controlled

Children wearing MiSight® 1 day achieved better than 20/20 vision across all visits over a 6-year period

The eyes of a child with nearsightedness grow faster and longer than they should, causing far away objects to appear blurry. If untreated, the eye becomes weaker and vision often gets worse as the child grows older.

How Do MiSight® Myopia Control Daily Contact Lenses Work?

1. FDA-Approved


MiSight® 1 day soft contact lenses are the first and only FDA-approved* product that are proven to slow the progression of myopia in children aged 8-12 at the initiation of treatment.†1


Furthermore, MiSight® 1 day contact lenses are specifically designed for age- appropriate children* with myopia, backed by rigorous scientific evidence, and have received regulatory approvals in many countries around the world.1-3


2. Designed for Myopia Control

Unlike a correction option alone, MiSight® 1 day contact lenses offer wearers a unique two-in-one benefit; they correct blurry distance vision (nearsightedness) and help control the progression of myopia in age-appropriate children.†1


3. ActivControl® Technology

The key to delivering the dual benefits of MiSight® 1 day is ActivControl® Technology which uses an innovative optic zone ring design with alternating vision and correction zones:


Two corrections zones to correct myopia so age-appropriate children can enjoy clear, spectacle-free vision. Two treatment zones create a myopic defocus, so instead of light rays falling short of the retina, images focus at the front of the retina. This treatment effect signals the eye to slow the rate at which it grows longer, minimizing the worsening of myopia over time.

4. Longest continuous soft contact lens study for myopia control.

MiSight® 1 day is backed by the longest continuous soft contact lens study for myopia control.


In over 7 years of international clinical study, results show that the mean axial elongation showed no evidence of rebound; meaning myopia control benefits from MiSight® 1 day are retained with further eye growth reverting back to age-expected average myopic progression rates after treatment has ended.


Over the initial three years of the study, MiSight® 1 day slowed myopia progression in children by 59% on average, and 41% of eyes had no progression.|2 Additionally, on average, children in the study wearing MiSight® progressed less than -1.00 diopter over 6 years,


5. Proven to be child-friendly and easy to use for age-appropriate children.

Kids interests change all the time, but families can now turn to MiSight® 1 day to help protect their vision from changing too.


Myopia is irreversible and typically progresses rapidly in younger children,6 but with MiSight®1 day,* children can get the clear vision they need today to participate in school, sports, and many other extracurricular activities while helping to protect it from getting worse for whatever’s in their future.


MiSight® 1 day has also been proven to be child-friendly and easy to use for age- appropriate children.1 In fact, children as young as 8 years old have shown they are able to handle their lenses confidently soon after an initial fitting.


In addition to the clinical benefits, studies show that contact lens wear is likely to improve a child’s self-perception of their physical appearance, athletic competence, and social acceptance.
