Orthokeratology (Ortho-K)
Ortho-K are custom contact lenses that are worn only at night. They gently and temporarily reshape the front surface of the eye. When they are removed in the morning, patients can see clearly with no correction. Studies show that Ortho-K lenses significantly slow Myopia progression in children and teens.
Soft Multifocal Contact Lenses
Soft multifocal contact lenses are identical in feel and wear to normal soft contact lenses. They are worn during the daytime and removed at night. The difference is the varying power of the lens from center to periphery. These varying powers allow light to focus appropriately on all areas of the retina, greatly slowing the progression of myopia.

Benefits beyond standard vision correction
Managing myopia with the Brilliant FuturesTM Myopia Management Program and MiSight® 1 day contact lenses can provide your child with a wide-range of benefits in addition to clear vision, including:
- Potentially slowing myopia progression during their growing years1**
- Offering a comfortable wearing experience2
- Avoiding the worry of losing or breaking glasses
- Accommodating a more active lifestyle2
- Providing children who wear contact lenses a significantly better quality of life than children wearing glasses, especially regarding athletics and appearance.2
For children who begin a myopia management program between 8 and 12 years of age, their vision will not only be corrected today, but the progression of myopia over their growing years may be slowed, potentially minimizing its long-term impact.1**
A revolutionary contact lens
MiSight® 1 day is a soft contact lens that uses ActivControlTM Technology to slow the elongation of the eyes.1 ActivControlTM Technology can simultaneously correct your child’s vision today, while training their eyes to resist growing longer.1

The lens is to be discarded after each removal. **Compared to a single vision 1 day lens over a 3 year period. 1. Chamberlain P, et al.
