essional Relations Manager for Menicon Co., Ltd.

"We have been fitting orthokeratology lenses in our clinic for several years, during which we observed that myopia tended to progress less in children wearing orthokeratology lenses compared to children wearing other modalities of visual correction. We are delighted to participate in this unique clinical trial, which should prove whether we are correct about our preliminary observations," added Mr. Cesar Villa, Director of Optometry at Novovision.
