Early Experience Program shows highly positive results from
MiYOSMART Chameleon patients on three continents
New promotion lets eye care providers order MiYOSMART
photochromic and polarized lenses for the same price as
clear
MISSISSAUGA, ON, May 1, 2024
/CNW/ -- Ophthalmic lens technology leader HOYA Vision Care
Canada announced today the results of its Early Experience
Program, a post-marketing survey focused on patients' experience
with MiYOSMART® Chameleon photochromic lenses. HOYA also
announced a promotion for eye care providers to order Chameleon and
MiYOSMART® Sunbird polarized lenses for the same price
as the company's clear MiYOSMART lenses.
The Early Experience Program was designed to answer eye care
professionals' and parents' questions surrounding MiYOSMART
Chameleon photochromic lenses and gain insights into the patients'
habits and behaviours. The data focused on adaptation and
tolerability in patients of different ages and ethnicities,
satisfaction and compliance, and outdoor behaviour.
The study revealed that MiYOSMART Chameleon spectacle lenses
provided swift adaptation, with nearly 80% of users adjusting
within a day, including teenagers matching younger children's
adaptability. Regardless of experience, all Chameleon wearers
expressed satisfaction with visual performance indoors and outdoors
and were comfortable with the lenses fading back to clear,
regardless of location. At the 3-month mark, 98% of wearers
reported overall satisfaction, bolstering eye care professionals'
confidence in recommending the solution to young patients.
Additionally, data from HOYA Vision Care indicated that
MiYOSMART Chameleon wearers reported a significant wearing time,
averaging 12 hours per day on weekdays, even during outdoor
activities, eliminating the need to switch lenses. This extended
wearing duration promises enhanced myopia management efficacy in
children by potentially maximizing treatment effectiveness over
time.
"HOYA understands the importance of UV protection and comfort in
bright sunlight for your young patients. Supported by the results
from our Early Experience Program, we highly recommend MiYOSMART
Sun Solutions as the ideal way to offer complete sun protection,
comfort, and myopia management for young myopic patients," said
Kim Kochendorfer, RO, Professional
Affairs Manager at HOYA Vision Care Canada. "MiYOSMART Sun lenses
were designed with children in mind to mitigate many of the common
concerns families may have. We are proud to offer industry-leading
products that offer comfort and high-quality visual
performance."
In addition, from May 1 through December
31, 2024, HOYA Vision Care Canada is offering both MiYOSMART
Chameleon and Sunbird lenses to ECPs at the same price point as
MiYOSMART Clear. To learn more about the promotion and HOYA's suite
of MiYOSMART lenses, visit online and speak to a HOYA Territory
Manager.
*MiYOSMART spectacle lenses have not been approved for use in
the management of myopia in all countries, including the U.S., and
are not currently available for sale in all countries, including
the U.S.
