Essilor® Stellest® lenses are innovative eyeglass lenses now FDA-authorized in the United States (September 2025). They are clinically proven to slow myopia progression by an average of 71% compared with standard single-vision lenses.
Unlike traditional glasses that only correct blurry distance vision, Stellest® lenses are designed to provide clear sight while helping manage prescription progression during childhood growth years.
At Fox Run Eye Care, Stellest® glasses are incorporated into a structured myopia management program focused on long-term monitoring and visual stability.
These lenses look and feel like regular glasses but feature H.A.L.T.™ (Highly Aspherical Lenslet Target) technology — a proprietary optical design that gently guides light to help manage eye growth.
The lens includes:
• A clear central zone for everyday distance vision
• Precisely arranged lenslets surrounding the center
• A design intended for full-time daily wear
• High-impact pediatric materials for safety
In U.S. clinical trials, children wearing Stellest® lenses experienced significantly slower progression compared to those wearing single-vision lenses.
For families seeking an FDA-authorized, glasses-based myopia management option, Stellest® lenses provide an evidence-supported solution within a monitored care plan.
Essilor® Stellest® glasses may be appropriate for:
• Children ages 8–12 at the start of treatment
• Children with prescriptions increasing year to year
• Newly diagnosed myopia patients
• Children who prefer glasses over contact lenses
• Active children who need durable daily eyewear
A comprehensive eye examination is required to determine candidacy and confirm prescription accuracy.
