Rochester, NY, August 3, 2026 — CooperVision Canada today announced the launch of MyDay® MiSight® 1 day contact lenses, its latest innovation with ActivControl® Technology designed to slow the worsening of myopia in children.†2,3 The new product combines the advanced silicone hydrogel material of MyDay® lenses with the proven ActivControl® Technology found in original MiSight® 1 day lenses.*1
Enrique Contreras, Country Manager at CooperVision Canada, explained the significance of the launch: “One in two children born today could have myopia by the age of 20.4 As a parent, I truly understand how myopia can significantly impact their quality of life, making it harder to participate in school, sports and other activities.5,6 Myopia can worsen rapidly, especially in younger children. That’s why early intervention matters so much.7
Our commitment to tackling myopia continues to be unwavering. With MyDay® MiSight® 1 day, we’ve brought together the advanced silicone hydrogel material found in our MyDay® contact lenses with the life-changing potential of myopia control.*1”
The company’s ActivControl® Technology has been shown to cut the worsening of myopia by approximately 50% and is backed by the longest-running soft contact lens clinical trial among children.†‡2,3 More than a quarter of a million children worldwide now wear contact lenses featuring this technology.8 The lens design incorporates vision correction zones and treatment zones to provide clear vision while helping to control the worsening of myopia.‡1,3,9

Nathalie Trottier, Senior Manager, Professional Affairs at CooperVision Canada, added: “This innovation delivers ‘always-on’ myopia control—children benefit from treatment throughout the day, simply by wearing their contact lenses.††3,9,10 It’s also designed to help support a smooth transition from myopia management to adult lens wear, thanks to its shared material and specifications with MyDay® lenses.‡‡”

Indications and Important Safety Information. Rx only. Results may vary.
ATTENTION: Reference the Package Insert or visit coopervision.ca/safety-myday-misight for a complete listing of Indications and Important Safety Information.
INDICATIONS: The MyDay MiSight 1 day (stenfilcon A) Soft Contact Lenses for Myopia Control are indicated for the correction of ametropia (myopia and hyperopia) in aphakic and non-aphakic persons with non-diseased eyes in powers from -20.00D to +2.00 diopters. The lenses may be worn by persons who exhibit astigmatism of -2.00 diopters or less that does not interfere with visual acuity. MyDay MiSight 1 day (stenfilcon A) Soft Contact Lenses for Myopia Control may reduce the rate of myopia progression in children (6-18) and correct ametropia. Reduction of myopia progression was observed in children with wearing time of 12 hours (8-16 hours) per day, 6.4 days (5-7) per week in a clinical study of MiSight 1 day (omafilcon A) containing identical dual focus optics to that of MyDay MiSight 1 day (stenfilcon A). Permanent myopia control after lens treatment is discontinued is not supported by clinical studies. MyDay MiSight 1 day (stenfilcon A) Soft Contact Lenses for Myopia Control are indicated for single use daily disposable wear. When prescribed for daily disposable wear, the lens is to be discarded after each removal.
* Proven to slow myopia progression in children compared to a single vision 1-day lens over a 3-year period
†Using measured and modeled data, pooled across ages (8-17), myopia progression was slowed by an average of approximately 50% with MiSight® 1 day, which shares the same ActivControl® Technology with MyDay® MiSight® 1 day
‡ MyDay® MiSight® 1 day contact lenses use the same ActivControl® Technology as the original MiSight® 1 day
§ 19% vs. 3% after 1 week of daily wear, p=0.02
♢94% vs. 81% after 1 week of daily wear, p=NS
¶ Based on manufacturers published data. MyDay® MiSight® 1 day has Dk/t of 100. Compared to the original MiSight 1 day (Dk/t 28), NaturalVue Multifocal 1 Day (Dk/t 25)
** WARNING: UV-absorbing contact lenses are NOT substitutes for protective UV-absorbing eyewear such as UV-absorbing goggles or sunglasses because they do not completely cover the eye and surrounding area. Persons should continue to use their protective UV-absorbing eyewear as directed. †† In clinical study, mean weekday wear time increased from 12.8 hours/day at 6-months to 13.9 hours/day at 6-years with a mean of >6.5 days/week for MiSight® 1 day, which shares the same ActivControl® Technology with MyDay® MiSight® 1 day
