Bloom® Day Contact Lenses for Children: Myopia Management by Menicon

Bloom® Day by Menicon is a daily disposable contact lens option used as part of the Menicon Bloom™ Myopia Management Treatment Plan. It has been developed to support the safe and effective management of childhood myopia, while also correcting vision so children can see clearly during the day.

At Eyecare Kids, our optometrists have a special interest in myopia management and can advise parents on whether Bloom® Day may be suitable for their child.

What Is Bloom® Day?

Bloom® Day is designed to be incorporated easily into a child’s routine. As part of the Menicon Bloom™ treatment plan, it aims to:

  • Correct existing short-sightedness
  • Support myopia management by addressing eye growth
  • Offer the convenience and hygiene of daily disposable lenses

Why Myopia Management Matters

Myopia occurs when the eye grows longer than normal and commonly progresses during childhood. Higher levels of myopia are associated with an increased risk of certain eye conditions later in life, including retinal detachment, myopic macular degeneration, glaucoma and cataracts.

Myopia management focuses on slowing the progression of myopia, not just correcting vision.

Factors Associated with Myopia Development

Research referenced by Menicon highlights several factors linked to myopia, including:

  • Increased time spent on close work
  • Family history of myopia
  • Reduced time spent outdoors

Myopia is becoming increasingly common worldwide, with projections suggesting nearly 50% of the global population may be myopic by 2050.
