Stellest Lenses

Myopia is becoming increasingly common in children - especially with rising screen time and reduced outdoor activities. Early intervention is essential, not only to help your child see clearly today but also to slow the progression of myopia as they grow. At Mission Optometric Center, we proudly offer Essilor Stellest Lenses in San Juan Capistrano, a groundbreaking solution designed specifically to help manage and control childhood myopia more effectively.

What Are Stellest Lenses?

Stellest lenses are advanced spectacle lenses created by Essilor, designed to help children with nearsightedness see clearly while also slowing the progression of their myopia. Unlike traditional lenses that focus only on correcting blurry distance vision, Stellest lenses incorporate innovative technology for long-term eye health benefits. These lenses are worn just like regular glasses, making them a comfortable and convenient option for families seeking a non-invasive myopia management solution.

How Do Stellest Lenses Work?

Stellest lenses use H.A.L.T. (Highly Aspherical Lenslet Target) technology, a breakthrough inspired by decades of research on myopia control. The lens features a unique constellation of tiny lenslets surrounding a central clear zone. While the central area corrects vision, the surrounding lenslets gently guide how light focuses on the retina.

This design helps reduce excessive eye elongation - a key factor in worsening nearsightedness. In clinical studies, Stellest lenses have been shown to slow the progression of myopia by up to 67% when worn consistently.

Benefits of Stellest Lenses for Myopia Management

Parents love Stellest lenses because they offer:

  • Clear, comfortable vision for everyday activities

  • Significant reduction in myopia progression when used full-time

  • Non-invasive treatment option compared to drops or contacts

  • Child-friendly design compatible with many popular frames

  • A proactive step toward protecting long-term eye health

By managing myopia early, you may help lower your child’s risk of future complications like retinal detachment, glaucoma, and macular degeneration.
