Myopia under control
Relaxed vision with MYOSLOW.
Short-sightedness (Myopia) is widespread

One out of ten children in Germany cannot see properly and 60 percent of visual impairments remain undetected for too long. Short-sightedness is not uncommon. Roughly 15 percent of all children become short-sighted by the end of primary school. Up to the age of 25, about 45 percent of young adults are already affected.
Myopia can be inherited, but it is also favored by lifestyle, for example by spending too little time outdoors in daylight, by too much “close vision” at the screen or when reading, as well as by increasing pressure to perform. It is therefore extremely important to make provisions in good time.
The innovative myopia management concept MYOSLOW by Visall offers effective support for children, adolescents and young adults who have been diagnosed with incipient or progressive myopia respectively hyperopia which is not age-appropriate.

Myopia unter control with MYOSLOW ESO and MYOSLOW DF 2.0 lenses
MYOSLOW lenses are available in two versions: A near esophoria variant and a defocus variant. Both lenses have been specially developed for the treatment of progressive myopia.
The effect of MYOSLOW ESO is based on the control of near esophoria and its influence on the development of myopia. Many children and adolescents with progressive myopia can be diagnosed with near esophoria. Lots of studies have shown that near support can correct this phoria and slow down myopia progression.
MYOSLOW DF 2.0 is a spectacle lens with a central correction zone and concentric power reduction in the plus direction to correct the hyperopic defocus on the peripheral retina.

Short-sighted children have a right to the best possible support.
The best possible development of our children deserves the best possible support from well-trained specialists. Myopia is on the rise in our society and there is great uncertainty among parents and those affected by this issue. Increasing myopia is becoming more and more present in the specialist press as well as in all other areas of the media.
MYOSLOW is used at an early stage to slow down the progression of ametropia — individually tailored and scientifically based. Because good vision today means the best chances for tomorrow.
