Developed by Johnson and Johnson, Acuvue® Abiliti™ 1-Day is a soft daily disposable contact lens for the correction of nearsightedness (while the lenses are worn) and slowing down nearsightedness progression over time. Optimized for wear by children, with a smaller diameter and steeper base curve and designed to fit the smaller anatomical features of a pediatric population.
It features the RingBoost™Technology, which includes a specialized optical design where light which passes through the outer treatment zone is focused in front of the retina but off the line of sight in a ring around the axis. This revolutionary technology is designed to break the interdependence between efficacy for slowing the progression of myopia and vision quality, which has been seen as a limitation of other soft contact lenses used for myopia management.
More than 95% of children wearing Abiliti™ 1-Day lenses achieved visual acuity of 20/20 or better, and had an average binocular visual acuity better than 20/20.b
