Scientists from the

The myopia control technology, which has been licensed for spectacle lenses to Carl Zeiss Vision (CZV) and contact lenses to CIBA Vision, is based on research by Vision CRC partners, the University of Houston College of Optometry and the Brien Holden Vision Institute at the University of New South Wales.
