Want to protect your kids' eyes from myopia? Get them to play outside Childhood myopia, or nearsightedness, is growing rapidly in the U.S. and around the world. Researchers say kids who spend two hours outside every day, are less likely to develop the condition.

Your support goes further when donating through Give to Lincoln, because all donations receive a portion of a match fund. Supporting the Gas Permeable Lens Institute (GPLI) ultimately means that more patients can have access to specialty contact lenses and better vision.

Although is ending, the obligation we have as an industry remains…to educate our communities about myopia and offer solutions to aid in slowing the progression of myopia.

As a specialty contact lens manufacturer, we are committed to do our part not only in offering quality products to aid in the slowing of myopia progression, but also in offering education to eye care practitioners, contact lens technicians, and eye care practices as a whole.
