Myopia, also known as near- or short-sightedness, is a common refractive error and one of the major causes of vision impairment worldwide. It affects approximately 30% of the world’s population and its prevalence has been forecast to affect about 50% of the world’s population by 2050. The prevalence of myopia in young adolescents has been increasing in recent decades to about 30% in industrialised societies of the West and epidemic levels of over 90% in some parts of Far East Asia. Globally, it is recognised as a significant public health concern associated with increased ocular-related morbidity and considerable healthcare costs.
The “See their imagination bloom” marketing campaign aims to raise awareness of childhood myopia and the possible treatment options, and make it easy for parents and eye care professionals around the world to incorporate Menicon Bloom lenses into children’s day, or night routines.
Menicon Bloom was introduced in the Netherlands in 2019. This release will launch across Australia, the United Kingdom, France, Spain, Italy, Germany and Singapore, starting March 2022.
