MiSight® 1 Day contact lenses are daily disposable lenses FDA-approved to slow myopia progression in children. Designed for kids aged 8 to 12, these lenses use ActivControl® Technology to correct vision while slowing eye growth, a key factor in myopia management. They’re safe, easy to use, and require no cleaning or storage, making them ideal for young users.
The lenses work by creating peripheral defocus, signaling the eye to slow elongation. This dual-purpose design means children enjoy clear vision while also benefiting from long-term control of their nearsightedness. Used correctly, MiSight® lenses offer a strong, research-backed tool in pediatric myopia treatment.

This dual-purpose design means children enjoy clear vision while also benefiting from long-term control of their nearsightedness. Used correctly, MiSight® lenses offer a strong, research-backed tool in pediatric myopia treatment.
Extensive clinical studies support MiSight® lenses’ ability to slow myopia. Over a three-year period, children using these lenses showed 59% less change in refractive error and 52% less axial elongation compared to peers in single-vision lenses. These findings indicate strong efficacy during the crucial years of visual development, making MiSight® a reliable choice for early intervention in myopia management.
Long-term results from six-year studies show continued success, with 23% of treated eyes having no myopic progression during the study period. These outcomes reinforce the importance of early intervention and consistent wear. The durability of these results over time speaks to the lens’s potential to provide lasting benefits for children at risk of progressive myopia.
Children who started wearing MiSight® lenses at younger ages saw greater control, showing the treatment’s potential to significantly influence lifelong eye health. The earlier the treatment begins, the better the long-term visual outcomes, emphasizing the urgency of beginning care as soon as myopia is diagnosed. The lenses are also associated with high compliance and minimal side effects. Children adapt well, and parents report satisfaction with both comfort and effectiveness, adding to MiSight®’s clinical credibility.
Fitting MiSight® lenses begins with a comprehensive pediatric eye exam to evaluate vision, corneal shape, and overall eye health. If the child qualifies, they are fitted with the correct lens size, and personalized training is provided on how to insert, remove, and care for the lenses. This helps ensure safe handling and builds confidence in young wearers, making the transition to daily lens use smoother and more comfortable.
Kleinwood Vision provides step-by-step instruction and ongoing follow-ups to ensure proper wear and long-term success.
Children typically adapt quickly to MiSight® lenses, and the daily disposable format reduces the need for cleaning, lowering the risk of infections. Parents appreciate the simplicity and safety of this lens option. Regular check-ups track eye growth and monitor the effectiveness of the treatment, allowing for timely adjustments that support lasting results in managing childhood myopia.
Children typically learn how to use MiSight® lenses within just a few days, especially when parents are involved in the learning process. Early training plays a key role in building confidence and preventing improper use of the lenses. With proper guidance and encouragement, children quickly become comfortable handling their lenses. Kleinwood Vision ensures that families receive comprehensive support, starting from the initial fitting and continuing through follow-up care to promote long-term success.
Ongoing monitoring is a vital part of the treatment plan, helping track axial length and evaluate how effectively the lenses are controlling myopia progression. To maintain consistent care, Kleinwood Vision schedules routine follow-up visits—first at one week, then at one month, followed by check-ups every three to six months. These structured visits provide opportunities to make adjustments as needed and reinforce good habits. Most children remain compliant when supported with clear instructions, regular feedback, and a familiar routine.
Consistent use is essential to the effectiveness of MiSight® lenses in slowing myopia progression. Children are recommended to wear the lenses for at least 10 hours a day, six or more days per week. This routine ensures the treatment delivers maximum results over time. The use of daily disposable lenses makes it easier to stick to this schedule by eliminating the need for cleaning and reducing the risk of infection.
Parents play a critical role in supporting their child’s success with MiSight®. Tracking daily wear time, encouraging routine, and fostering open communication help identify and address any issues early. Prompt attention to discomfort or misuse prevents long gaps in wear, which could reduce the treatment’s overall effectiveness. Establishing and maintaining strong wear habits not only leads to better control of myopia but also supports long-term eye health and a more positive experience with vision correction.
Both MiSight® and orthokeratology (ortho-k) are effective options for controlling myopia in children, but they differ in how they’re worn. MiSight® lenses are soft, daily disposables worn during the day and thrown away after each use. Ortho-k lenses are worn overnight to gently reshape the cornea and removed in the morning.
MiSight® is often preferred by families looking for a low-maintenance option with easy handling and high compliance. Ortho-k may suit children who want to be lens-free during the day, especially those who play sports or have active lifestyles.

Both treatments have strong clinical support. The best choice depends on the child’s age, routine, and ability to follow proper lens care. An eye care professional can help guide the decision based on individual needs and long-term vision goals.
