On March 29, 2022, Essilor Canada is extending its family of Eyezen®+ lenses with a new Essilor® lens designed specifically for children. Eyezen®+ Kids lenses take into account children’s (aged between 6 and 12) parameters such as their morphology, their object distance and gaze directions to offer them better visual comfort and protection. With Eyezen®+ Kids lenses, eyecare professionals are equipped to meet the specific children’s visual needs and allow them to discover, learn something new everyday.

Eyezen®+ Kids lenses: designed for how they see the world

Essilor’s R&D department has found that children tend to move their eyes a lot more and often look up at the world around them because they are smaller, thus using a larger surface of the lens. In addition, children’s arms are shorter than those of adults. They therefore look at objects at a closer distance than adults. Finally, children have different facial features than adults.

Eyezen®+ Kids lenses: an all-in-one solution

The Eyezen® DualOptim^TM Kids technology takes children’s parameters into account to optimise the surface of the lens with 60% more surface area for optimal correction than a standard single vision lens.

In addition, Crizal® coatings provide advanced clarity and durability of the lenses and the Blue UV CaptureTM Technology protects children’s eyes from any harmful surrounding light, like those emitted by digital devices.
