ESSILOR STELLEST LENSES
Stellest™ lens is Essilor’s brand lenses for myopia control, it is one of the modern lenses which is best solution to fight your child’s myopia and its strong efficacy has been clinically proven. Essilor claims that their STELLEST™ LENSES SLOW DOWN MYOPIA PROGRESSION BY 67% ON AVERAGE⁽¹⁾.
BENEFITS
CORRECTS MYOPIA
For children, a vision as sharp as with Single Vision lens.⁽²⁾
CONTROLS MYOPIA PROGRESSION
Slow down myopia progression by 67% on average, compared to single vision lenses, when worn 12 hours a day.⁽¹⁾
WITH NO COMPROMISE
Stellest™ lenses are aesthetic, safe and simple
Myopia correction with clear vision
The Single Vision Zone, carrying the prescription of your child, provides sharp vision by perfectly focusing light on the retina. The lens design ensures a large prescription zone. This guarantees clear vision and comfort.
MYOPIA CONTROL WITH A SIGNAL AGAINST EYE ELONGATION
This lens is made of a cutting-edge constellation of 1021 invisible lenslets. On top of bringing sharp vision like a standard single vision lens, this constellation creates a signal in the child’s eye acting as a shield against eye elongation.
Thanks to the H.A.L.T technology, Essilor® Stellest™ lenses slow down myopia progression by 67% on average, compared to single vision lenses, when worn 12 hours a day.(1)
Essilor Stellest lenses – What is H.A.L.T.?
The Stellest spectacle lens is the culmination of more than 30 years of academic studies, product design, rigorous research efforts and collaboration between the top research institutes, myopia experts and Essilor’s research development teams.
The Stellest lens provides myopia correction and sharp vision through a single vision clear zone in the centre of the lens. It provides myopia control through the H.A.L.T. technology which consists of a constellation of aspherical lenslets spread on 11 rings. The effect of this design is the slowing of the elongation of the eye in myopic children. The power of each ring has been ingeniously determined to ensure light is focussed in front of the retina following the shape of the eye to achieve consistent myopia slowdown.
Essilor claims that their ESSILOR STELLEST LENSES slow down myopia progression by 67% on average, compared to single vision lenses, when worn 12 hours a day(1).
In its clinical trial, Essilor showed that after the first year, the eye growth of 9 out of 10 children wearing Stellest™ lenses was similar or slower than non-myopic children. Moreover, 2 out of 3 children who wore Stellest™ lenses have had a stable need in vision correction after the first year(3).
