It also includes all the tools for the ECP to have a successful myopia journey with their patients and two contact lenses that are CE approved specifically for myopia control: Menicon Bloom Night, a specially designed orthokeratology contact lens, with its own Menicon Bloom lens care solutions, and Menicon Bloom Day, an extended depth of focus soft daily disposable contact lens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Celebrating the win, and speaking on behalf of the entire Menicon Global team who have been involved in developing Menicon Bloom, Kevin Mitchell, Managing Director at Menicon UK, said: \u201cTo take home the Contact Lens Award for Menicon Bloom is not only a fantastic achievement, it\u2019s also real recognition of the hard work and innovation which has gone into creating a treatment plan for something which impacts a huge percentage of the world\u2019s population.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWith forecasts predicting levels of world myopia could increase to 50% by 2050*\u00b9, the threat to our children\u2019s eyesight is very real. We recognise the alarming challenges that rising levels of childhood myopia present and have successfully developed and rolled out a solution. Menicon Bloom has the potential to be truly transformational in the way we treat and manage this condition.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe Menicon Bloom family provides all-day versatility, comfort and peace of mind to children, young people and their families. It integrates well into the child\u2019s everyday life and becomes a hassle-free part of their daily routine. For parents and ECPs, we\u2019ve streamlined the process by ensuring that all of the information they need is available via our app and our system, Menicon Bloom Easyfit, respectively, which makes the whole experience less stressful and more efficient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMenicon is more than just a brand, it is an ethical business that puts the needs of ECPs and patients at the heart of everything that it does.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Menicon was praised for going above and beyond to support ECPs who have recommended a myopia management journey for their patients, from fitting, using its advanced Menicon Bloom Easyfit software and the innovative Menicon Bloom app, to understanding the importance of engaging the child and their family throughout their journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Menicon Bloom system is tailored so that it can be easily managed by children, giving them the ability to take a hands-on approach in the insertion, removal and caring of their contact lenses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>*\u00b9 Holden BA, Fricke TR, Wilson DA, et al.
