  • Total Production Capacity: 22 million units
  • Gross Margin: 52%

Product Definition and Technology

Reduced contrast lenses, also known as DOT blur lenses, are specialized lenses designed specifically for the prevention and control of myopia. These lenses utilize point-diffusion myopia control technology, which functions by reducing contrast through soft scattered light. This process reduces the high-contrast signals detected by retinal photoreceptor cells, thereby delaying the growth of the axial length of the eye and achieving the objective of slowing down myopia progression.

Market Dynamics

Growth Drivers and Trends

The Reduced Contrast Lenses market is currently in a growth phase, primarily driven by the following factors:

  • Myopia Management: Increasing demand for myopia management in children and adolescents.
  • Visual Comfort: Growing need for enhanced visual comfort.
  • Rising Prevalence: A global rise in myopia prevalence, particularly within Asian markets, is driving the penetration of functional lenses.
  • R&D and Clinical Validation: Leading optical brands are strengthening research and development in micro-structured optical design and promoting clinical validation through strategic partnerships with ophthalmic institutions.
  • Market Characteristics: The market is characterized by relatively high technological barriers, strong brand concentration, and higher gross margins compared to conventional single-vision lenses.
  • Future Outlook: As awareness of visual health increases and price acceptance for functional lenses improves, the market is expected to maintain steady growth in the coming years.
