Ready for contact lenses Juniors and contact lenses

For your child, safer lenses with Pack Z Junior.

Depending on their age and eyesight (0 to 16 yo)

Before primary school, priority to visual development

At a very young age, it is the medical indications that guide the choice of what is best
for your child. Lenses will be prescribed by your eye specialist or optician in the case of
congenital or traumatic cataracts. From age 3 to 6, they will be preferred to glasses
to help your child's visual development in very specific cases (for example, if there is a
considerable difference between both eyes or for a major or progressive defect).Your
involvement on a daily basis will be important but rewarding for your child's development. 


Autonomy and personal development in varied activities

From the age of 8, it is often your child who will bring up the possibility of wearing lenses, because appearances are important and also to have freedom in sporting activities. Whether your child is short-sighted, far-sighted and/or astigmatic, lenses will let them be just as comfortable in the classroom as in the playground and develop their personality. Their field of vision is expanded and not limited by frames.

Moving up to secondary school is an important step corresponding to a frequent request to try out lenses by pre-adolescents who want to benefit from trouble-free vision.

 

In ultra-permeable Z material 

Perhaps you do not yet wear lenses yourself? There are several types of lenses: soft and GP lenses which are permeable to oxygen.

From 0 to 16 years old, Menicon Z ultra-permeable lenses are recommended as first-line treatment to ensure the best possible quality of vision while ensuring ocular health.


Compared to soft contact lenses

• Menicon Z ultra-permeable contact lenses allow your child's eyes to breathe more easily, even if they are worn both day and night (up to 30 days at a stretch). More compact, they are made from an ultra-permeable material that allows tears to freely circulate under the lens.

• The risks of allergy or infection are reduced to a minimum (any such incidents will be felt as an alarm signal, in which case the lenses should be removed immediately).

• Unrivalled vision for the short sighted, far-sighted and/or astigmatics.

• The results observed in halting the progression of short- sightedness in children who wear oxygen permeable rigid lenses are explained in particular by the quality of the retinal image.
