Eyezen®+ Kids lenses: designed for how they see the world
Children are not like adults. They have different visual needs. Essilor’s R&D department has found2 that children tend to move their eyes a lot more and are often look up at the world around them because they are smaller, thus using a larger surface of the lens. In addition, children’s arms are shorter than those of adults. They therefore look at objects at a closer distance than adults. Finally, children have different facial features than adults.
Today’s standard single vision lenses are not optimised for children. Essilor® specially developed lenses meet their visual needs.
Eyezen®+ Kids lenses: an all-in-one solution that offers children the visual comfort and protection they need.
The Eyezen® DualOptimTM Kids technology takes children’s parameters into account to optimise the surface of the lens with 60% more surface area for optimal correction than a3 standard single vision lens . We maintain a child’s prescription while using two reference points (not only the centre of the lens) to optimize the surface of the lens up to 60% more surface area for all of a child’s gaze directions (not only the centre of the lens),
In addition, Crizal® coatings provide advanced clarity and durability of the lenses and the Blue UV CaptureTM Technology protects children’s eyes from any harmful surrounding light, like that 4 emitted by digital devices .
Vision plays a key role in children’s development and growth. With Eyezen®+ Kids, give children a wider vision zone in a more comfortable lens.
