Myopia in children is on the rise worldwide. At increasingly younger ages, they develop blurred distance vision, often linked to screen time and a lack of time spent outdoors.
But today, it’s no longer just about correcting myopia: it is now possible to take action to slow its progression. That is exactly what Axiora lenses do.
Understanding the progression of myopia
Myopia typically develops during childhood and adolescence. It is caused by the eyeball becoming longer, which prevents light from focusing properly on the retina.
The result:
- Distance vision becomes blurry
- Prescription strength increases over time
- Long-term eye health risks may increase
This is why early intervention is essential.
Axiora: much more than just a lens
Unlike traditional lenses that simply correct vision, Axiora lenses have been specially designed for children to meet their evolving visual needs.
They offer:
- Clear, stable vision
- Optimal daily comfort
- UV protection
- And most importantly, active support in managing myopia
Technology that helps slow the progression of myopia
Axiora lenses incorporate advanced optical technology that helps slow the progression of myopia in young people.
Specifically, these lenses:
- Correct central vision for optimal clarity
- Incorporate a specific design that influences how light is projected onto the retina
- Help limit the signals responsible for the elongation of the eye
By reducing this phenomenon, the progression of myopia can be slowed over time.
A “shield” for growing eyes
Children’s eyes are constantly developing. Axiora lenses are designed to support this growth while protecting visual health.
They act as:
- A preventive tool
- An ally for parents
- A clinical tool for eye care professionals
They can thus be considered much more than just a vision correction: a true shield for children’s visual future
Why early intervention makes all the difference
The more myopia progresses, the greater the risk of long-term complications (such as certain eye diseases).
Acting early allows you to:
- Stabilize vision
- Limit the increase in prescription strength
- Offer a better quality of life for the child
A solution tailored to children’s lifestyles
Designed for active young people, Axiora lenses are:
- Lightweight and durable
- Suitable for daily activities (school, sports, leisure)
- Durable thanks to their anti-scratch and anti-reflective coatings
They fit naturally into daily life, without compromising on visual performance or comfort.
In summary
Axiora lenses represent a significant advance in the management of myopia in children.
- They correct vision
- They protect the eyes
- They help slow the progression of myopia
A proactive approach to preserving visual health… today and for tomorrow.
