Rigid Gas Permeable Paragon CRT® Contact Lenses (paflufocon B) and Paragon CRT® 100 Contact Lenses (paflufocon D) for Corneal Refractive Therapy are indicated for use in the reduction of myopic refractive error in nondiseased eyes. The lenses are indicated for overnight wear in a Corneal Refractive Therapy fitting program for the temporary reduction of myopia up to 6.00 diopters in eyes with astigmatism up to 1.75 diopters. The lenses may be disinfected using only a chemical disinfection system. Note: To maintain the Corneal Refractive Therapy effect of myopia reduction, overnight lens wear must be continued on a prescribed schedule. Failure to do so can affect daily activities (e.g.,night driving), visual fluctuations and changes in intended correction.

That’s Nearsightedness

Paragon CRT® Contact Lenses

How Does Your Child SEE the World?

A better life for your child...OVERNIGHT!

If your child is nearsighted, far away objects like the front of the classroom or friends on the playground, will look blurry and out of focus.

As a parent, you know what’s best for your child.

Paragon CRT® Contact Lenses correct vision overnight while your child sleeps.

Nearsightedness (also known as “myopia”) is a very common problem that is rapidly on the rise. It often shows itself first in the classroom and can become progressively worse.

Over time, nearsightedness can lead to serious vision complications later in life, including retinal detachment, macular degeneration, and glaucoma.1

When the lenses are removed in the morning, your child can see clearly without the need for glasses or daytime contacts.

LIVING WITH LIMITS Children, by nature, approach life without limits. At the same time, vision issues can place limitations on childhood development that can directly impact their quality of life.2

Clinical studies prove overnight lenses like Paragon CRT® deliver unique, life-changing benefits,3 including:

• Improved ability to learn

• Enhanced self-esteem

• Higher self-confidence

• Greater success in sports

Enhance your child’s quality of life with Paragon CRT®.
