According to the World Health Organization’s 2020 estimates, about 30% of the world’s population is myopic and by 2050, half of the world’s population will be affected by myopia. Hoya introduces Miyosmart, which slows the rate of myopia progression in children by 60%. The Myosmart lens is based on the revolutionary Defocus Incorporated Multiple Segments (D.I.M.S.). This technology was developed in collaboration with the Hong Kong Polytechnic University in 2014. Myosmart with D.I.M.S. technology corrects visual impairment over its entire surface to slow the rate of myopia progression.
