The School of Optometry at Hong Kong Polytechnic University has announced a new cooperation agreement with global optical leader Zeiss, further strengthening their existing partnership.
This collaboration will leverage the patented “Defocus Integrated Soft Contact (DISC) Technology for Myopia Management,” developed by Hong Kong Polytechnic University, to enhance Zeiss’ MyoCare lenses, which are designed for myopia prevention and control. By merging authoritative academic research with advanced optical technology, the partnership aims to deliver more effective and professional vision care solutions for myopic children globally. DISC technology, pioneered by a research team at Hong Kong Polytechnic University in 2000, utilizes a unique physical defocusing mirror design to mitigate the visual stimuli that contribute to axial elongation, effectively suppressing the progression of myopia.- Flcube.com
