100% Optical: Lenses for life

The 2023 edition of 100% Optical, held February 25-27 at Excel London, included a slew of product launches and other activities from companies in the lens sector. Hoya celebrated the second anniversary of its myopia management lens, Miyosmart, at the show and previewed two products that fit within a new Miyosmart Sun category.

Miyosmart Chameleon is a photochromic spectacle lens that offers the same defocus incorporate multiple segments (DIMS) technology as the original Miyosmart lens in order to slow down myopia progression in children. April 24 is the UK launch date for Miyosmart Chameleon. Meanwhile, Miyosmart Sunbird, which will have its UK launch in June, utilises DIMS technology in a polarised sun lens.
