A BREAKTHROUGH IN MYOPIA
MANAGEMENT FOR YOUR CHILD
The incidence of myopia is expected to increase significantly 1 as lifestyles change, with
children taking part in more near-sighted activities 2 like using digital devices, studying,
reading and spending less time outdoors.
MiyoSmart is a child-friendly, easy to adapt and non-invasive solution for myopia control. Ask
your Hoya Territory Manager for more details.
