Stellest Lenses for Myopia Management

What are Stellest Lenses?

Essilor Stellest lenses are prescription eyeglass lenses for children that are designed to slow the progression of myopia (nearsightedness).

They use a technology that provides clear central vision while creating a “defocus” effect in the peripheral vision, which signals the eye to slow its growth.

How do Stellest Lenses Work?

Myopia occurs when the eyeball grows too long, causing light to focus in front of the retina instead of directly on it.

Stellest lenses utilize this combination technology to manage this growth;

• Highly Aspherical Lenslet Target (HALT) technology. This technology uses central, single-vision zone to correct the child’s refractive error to provide clear distance vision.
• Peripheral defocus: Over 1,000 tiny, invisible lenslets are arranged in 11 concentric rings around the central zone. These lenslets create a volume of “myopic defocus” in front of the peripheral retina, which directs the eye to slow its elongation

Benefits of Stellest Lenses:

1. Correct myopia: Giving your child vision as sharp as with single vision lenses

2. Control myopia progression: Slow down myopia progression by 67% on average

3. No compromises: Aesthetic, safe and simple

Don’t just Correct Myopia – Control It;

Stellest® lenses are Essilor®’s game-changing innovation to slow down myopia progression in children.

Essilor® Stellest® lenses slow down myopia progression by 67% on average, compared to single vision lenses, when worn 12 hours a day.

Is Stellest the Right Lens for my Child?

Starting to get myopia: The younger a child develops short-sightedness, the more severe it becomes. You can correct and control your child’s myopia progression with Stellest® lenses to help them now and in their future.

Already Myopic: Today, most myopic children wear standard ophthalmic lenses, which only correct short-sightedness.

Stellest® lenses not only correct myopia but also control its progression.
