As people age, they tend to have difficulty in seeing nearby objects clearly. Also, using smartphones for long hours puts increased strain on the eyes. Accordingly, people in their forties and even their thirties have difficulties focusing on nearby objects. *1 In recent years, the market for multifocal contact lenses has grown every year. We believe we can provide many customers with new value by launching a new multifocal lens to the daily disposable lens market with the largest number of customers. *1:Investigated by Menicon The 1DAY Menicon PremiO Series have been used by many people since its launch. They are the first domestically produced daily disposable contact lenses using silicone hydrogel material that achieves both high oxygen permeability and comfort while being worn, with SMART TOUCH that enables users to remove a lens from the container cleanly and easily without touching the lens surface. The 1DAY Menicon PremiO multifocal lens provides natural and comfortable vision at any distance with its smooth optical power distribution design for seeing near, medium, and faraway distances clearly with one lens. In the MELS PLAN with the flat-rate system, 1DAY Menicon PremiO multifocal lenses are available at the same monthly cost as myopia lenses and astigmatism lenses. Thus, contact lens users can readily use these high-quality multifocal lenses. Menicon proposes a new “vision” through the provision of products that meet the lifestyle and needs of each customer.
