MiSight 1 Day Contact Lenses in Honolulu (FDA-Approved Myopia Control)
At Simply Eyes Hawaii, we are proud to offer MiSight® 1 day, the first and only FDA-approved soft contact lens proven to slow the progression of myopia (nearsightedness) in children ages 8–12 at the start of treatment.
Myopia is increasing rapidly among children, and early treatment is essential to protecting lifelong sight. MiSight® gives young patients clear vision today while helping shield their eyes from future risks.
Why Myopia Control Matters
Myopia is more than blurry distance vision—it is a progressive and irreversible eye disease caused by the eye growing too long. As the eye elongates, the risk of serious eye problems later in life increases, including:
Because children’s eyes grow quickly, earlier treatment leads to better long-term outcomes.
What Is MiSight® 1 Day?
MiSight® 1 day is a daily disposable soft contact lens developed specifically for children. It is the only lens with FDA approval for slowing myopia progression in age-appropriate children.
✔ Proven to reduce myopia progression
Clinical studies show a 59% average reduction in myopia progression compared to single-vision lenses.
✔ Designed for kids ages 8–12 starting treatment
The FDA approval specifically covers children 8–12 years old at initiation, a period when myopia can worsen the fastest.
✔ Daily disposables = simple and hygienic
No solutions, no lens cleaning—just one fresh lens per day.
How MiSight® 1 Day Works (ActivControl® Technology)
MiSight® lenses have two specialized zones built into the lens:
1. Correction Zones
Provide clear vision for everyday activities such as reading, classroom work, and sports.
2. Treatment Zones
Create controlled myopic defocus, signaling the eye to slow down growth—protecting long-term vision.
This dual-action technology allows your child to see clearly today while helping prevent sight-threatening issues tomorrow.
