They also had less change in spherical equivalent cycloplegic autorefraction (\u20130.56 D vs. \u20131.16 D).<\/p>\n<p>The researchers described both outcomes as \u201cnumerically\u201d improved compared with the control group.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe myopia progression results support the effectiveness of Abiliti 1-Day lenses as a myopia management option,\u201d Nixon said.<\/p>\n<p>Children wore the lenses on average for 14 hours a day, 6.8 days per week. No serious or significant adverse events related to the lens were reported.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe findings from this study showed strong performance and safety for the Abiliti 1-Day lens, consistent with the conclusions for other multinational, randomized, controlled, double-masked trials,\u201d Nixon said. <\/p>\n<p>According to Johnson &amp; Johnson Vision, this product is not FDA-approved and not available in the U.S.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article__content--footer\">\n<div class=\"publisher-logo\">\n    <span>Published by:<\/span><br \/>\n    <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.healio.com\/~\/media\/h5\/feature\/news\/publogos\/pcon.svg?la=en&amp;h=28&amp;w=180&amp;hash=9F02AF9127CF86DF7E84A3BCB257547E\" class=\"logo-img\" height=\"28\" alt=\"primary care optometry news logo\" width=\"180\"\/>\n  <\/div>\n<div class=\"sources-references-disclosures\">\n<h3>Sources\/Disclosures<\/h3>\n<h2> Source: <\/h2>\n<p class=\"citation\">Nixon A, et al.
