VARILUX XR SERIES:
THE BEST OVERALL PROGRESSIVE LENS1

We live on the go, hyper connected. With more than 100,0002 movements per day our eyes need to do extra efforts to maintain sharpness while we are in motion.

Introducing Varilux® XR seriesTM, the first eye-responsive progressive lens3 that provides instant sharpness even in motion4

THE BEST OVERALL PROGRESSIVE LENS1

Varilux® XR series™ is the first eye-responsive progressive lens² powered by behavioral artificial intelligence.

Beyond prescription and eye physiology the design now considers visual behavior, a prerequisite for fast and precise eye movements.

9/10 WEARERS4:

_

01   Perceived instant sharpness at all distances, even while in motion5

02   Felt confident or very confident while in motion6

03   Felt adapted by the first day7

_

POWERED BY BEHAVIORAL ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE3

More than 1 million data points from exclusive research, wearer tests in real-life, wearer behavioral and postural measurements in-store were computed and analyzed.

Therefore, for every single wearer prescription, the visual behavior profile8is predicted to design a progressive lens that respects the natural eye movements.

XR-MOTIONTM TECHNOLOGY

The XR-motion technology allows the optimization of both lenses according to the visual behavior profile of the patient through two major optimizations:

– Taking binocular vision to the next level

– Precise positioning of the focus zones

+49% VOLUME OF BROADBAND VISION VS VARILUX® X SERIESᵀᴹ LENSES9

A new criterion, named volume of broadband vision, calculates the 3D area where the wearer can benefit from highly sharp vision on any visual target, even while moving, with a seamless ocular navigation between 30cm and infinity.10

¹ Based on achieving the highest composite score among premium Progressive designs of leading U.S. competitors on 14 attributes identified as important by a survey of U.S. consumers. Measurements were the result of Essilor R&D state of the art avatar simulations 2022.

JOHNSON & JOHNSON VISION LAUNCHES ACUVUE ABILITI™ – A NEW BRAND OF MYOPIA MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS TO HELP CONTROL CHILDREN’S MYOPIA

Abiliti™ aims to give children clearer vision today for better eye health tomorrow through innovative and scientifically-proven solutions

SINGAPORE – Johnson & Johnson Vision, a global leader in eye health and part of the Johnson & Johnson Medical Devices Companies1, today announced the launch of ACUVUE Abiliti™ in Singapore, a powerful new comprehensive approach for myopia management. Singapore is the first market in Asia Pacific to launch the Abiliti™ Overnight Therapeutic Lenses for Myopia Management – an orthokeratology (ortho-K) lens with the CE mark for myopia control. Launch in the rest of the region will soon follow.

The launch of Abiliti™ marks a key milestone in Johnson & Johnson Vision’s commitment to change the trajectory of myopia, a growing epidemic that is the biggest eye health threat of the 21st century.2 In Singapore, eight out of 10 children are likely to become myopic by Primary Six, leading to one of the highest prevalences of myopia in the world3. In a recent survey by Johnson & Johnson4, a proportion of Singaporean parents reported that at least 75.9% of them had children who were diagnosed with myopia before they were nine years old. Yet, many parents are unaware of the implications myopia can have on their children’s long-term eye health and abilities.

Young children who develop myopia before the age of 12 are more at risk of developing high myopia5, leading to increased risks of sight-threatening diseases such as myopic macular degeneration6 and retinal detachment7. Myopia also progresses more quickly in children8, which is why parents need to take action early to manage their children’s myopia and protect their sight and eye health.

“Myopia is sometimes called “nearsightedness”, but most people are unaware that it is so much more. It causes irreversible elongation of the eye and increases the risks of future sight-threatening complications. Yet, it can be managed with proper treatment”, said Vaibhav Saran, Area Vice President for Johnson & Johnson Vision in Asia Pacific. “As an eye health leader, Johnson & Johnson Vision believes in leading with science and has made significant investments in research to understand and combat myopia progression. Early diagnosis and treatment of myopia are crucial to protect children’s lifetime eye health. Thus, we aspire to arm parents and our professional partners with new therapies that can effectively manage myopia progression in young children once signs of myopia appear.”

Among the first in the industry to recognise the impact of myopia and the importance of myopia management, Johnson & Johnson Vision launched the Abiliti™ brand to address the prevalence and progression of myopia in children.  Abiliti™ is a holistic suite of myopia management solutions designed to fit seamlessly into the lifestyle of parents and children. This includes the Abiliti™ Overnight Lens – an ortho-K therapeutic lens with the CE mark for myopia control, allowing children to experience a spectacle free-day, and the SeeAbiliti™ digital companion app to address individual kids’ needs as they grow, with more offerings to come. Abiliti™ Overnight Lenses have been successfully prescribed for controlling the progression of myopia in children as young as six years of age.

Abiliti™ includes a range of products and solutions for young myopic patients, parents and eye care professionals across three main pillars:

  • See Your Abiliti™: A suite of therapeutic products for young patients with myopia and their parents, including the Abiliti™ Overnight ortho-K therapeutic lenses and the SeeAbiliti™ app.
  • Master Your Abiliti™: Unparalleled support to eye care providers through personalised professional training and centers of clinical excellence, including a lens-fitting software called FitAbiliti™.
  • Share Your Abiliti™: Increased access to eye care through an ongoing partnership with Sight for Kids®, providing free comprehensive eye exams for children in need with each annual purchase of an Abiliti™ product.

Through the Sight for Kids® initiative, Johnson & Johnson Vision aims to give back to global communities that the company operates in, while addressing the growing epidemic and combating the progression of myopia in Singapore.

Join Johnson & Johnson Vision and change the trajectory of the global myopia epidemic. Give your children clearer vision today, for better eye health tomorrow. Download the SeeAbiliti™ app and go to any of Johnson & Johnson Vision’s partner optometrists here for a comprehensive eye health check and find out more about how Abiliti™ can keep your kids unstoppable!
