Patented C.A.R.E. technology
Fine ring structures inside the lens send a signal to the back of the eye to help slow excessive axial elongation of the eyeball.
ZEISS MyoCare — myopia management for children
ZEISS MyoCare lenses to help slow the progression of short-sightedness in children, with measurement and regular follow-up.
ZEISS MyoCare
What is myopia management?
Short-sightedness in children usually increases as the eyeball elongates during the growing years. Myopia management is more than a corrective pair of glasses: it is a lens designed to help slow that excessive elongation, combined with regular follow-up to record the change year after year.
Why it matters
- Every additional step of myopia is linked to a higher risk of eye health problems later in life.
- Starting early, at the first sign of rapid increase, gives the best chance of control.
- The child sees clearly and comfortably all day, and the glasses look like any ordinary pair.
- Wearing the glasses consistently throughout the day is essential to the result.
How ZEISS MyoCare lenses work
MyoCare combines a dedicated optical design that signals the eye with a design for clear everyday vision, plus protective and scratch-resistant coatings.
ClearFocus design
A back-surface design that supports clear, comfortable vision in the centre and towards the edges of the lens, making the lens easier for children to accept.
ZEISS DuraVision coatings
A coating that strengthens the lens surface and improves scratch resistance — important for children's glasses in daily use.
UV protection
UV protection built into the lens to protect a child's eyes during play and outdoor activity.
How we apply it at Rawand
Examination and measurement
A careful eye test, recording the current prescription as the baseline for follow-up.
Lens plan
Selecting the right ZEISS MyoCare lens for the child's age, prescription and lifestyle.
The right frame
A comfortable, stable frame on the child's face so the lens design works as intended.
Regular follow-up
Follow-up visits to measure change and confirm the glasses are worn consistently.
Habits that support the result
Alongside the lens, ZEISS recommends simple daily habits that support myopia management.
- At least two hours outdoors every day (it can be split across the day).
- Avoid reading or screen use at a distance closer than 20 cm.
- Take regular breaks during near work and study.
- Annual examinations for children from age five, with follow-up through the growing years.
- Wear the glasses consistently for the whole day.
