Let’s fight Myopia with the Stellest ™new lenses
Playing, working, reading, discovering the world … Did you know that most of learning takes place through sight? The more a child develops myopia at a young age, the faster myopia itself progresses.
Diagnosing myopia in time allows you to preserve your baby’s sight and visual health. You can try Essilor® Stellest ™ lenses, a new visual remedy from Essilor® to manage children’s myopia.
Stellest ™ lenses are Essilor®’s new visual remedy for managing children’s myopia.
The lens is made up of a series of invisible microlenses that create a signal in front of the retina to guide eye growth and slow the progression of myopia.
Thanks to H.A.L.T.technology, Essilor® Stellest ™ lenses slow down the progression of myopia.
With this spirit and to support Stellest ™, MyExpert Master Fit was born: a training course dedicated to Vision Professionals with the aim of raising the standards of professionalism and becoming experts in correction, thus trying to prevent the increase in the incidence of high myopia.
Here is the much desired “Certificate of the University of Milan BICOCCA”, a demanding training course but now, together with the medical profession and the parents of our young clients, we have an effective weapon to combat myopic progression. Come and discover the new H.A.L.T. of Stellest ™ lenses.

VeniceDesignWeek
The twelfth edition, 9 to 17 October 2021, presents site specific installations, exhibitions in private galleries, hotels and museums, workshops, enhanced reality paths, face-to-face and online conferences to discover design meant as a complex process that starts from practical needs to reach the project. The theme proposed for the 2021 edition “DESIGN FOR ALL” is interpreted through carefully seeing, hearing, tasting, smelling the applications of new technologies.
The map presents a selection of artisanal businesses, concept stores, where the boundary between art and craft is often very thin. The ancient craftsmanship tradition combined with art make Venice a point of reference, the lounge of design.
Il Giappone in punta di naso
IL GIAPPONE IN PUNTA DI NASO
This Summer 2021’s showcase is dedicated to Japan and a very special exhibition.
To coincide with the opening of the “XXXII Olympic Games in Tokyo”, an exhibition dedicated to the evolution of eyewear in the Land of the Rising Sun opened on 3 July 2021 at the Eyewear Museum in Pieve di Cadore (BL). An exhibition of over 80 pieces from the Vascellari collection.
The first exhibition in the world outside Japan, with so many unique and interesting objects that it has received the patronage of the Japanese consulate in Italy.
In a short tour it is possible to retrace a history of over 2000 years, from the first representation of a protective mask worn by “Mother Earth”, a 32 cm terracotta statuette from the late Jomon period (1000-400 BC) to the arrival of the first glasses in the Japanese archipelago through the Jesuit missionaries in 1551. The homage in the first 1600 of a pair of glasses to the founder of the city of Tokyo, Tokugawa Ieyasu, with a very particular detail revealed by our research, passing through the development linked to the morphology of oriental faces and ending with the tragic event of the Second World War and the dropping of the H-bomb.
The exhibition will be open every day until 30 September 2021 with opening time 9.30-12.30 / 15.30-18.30 and then until 6 January 2022, with opening times yet to be determined, at the Museodell’Occhiale, just 30 metres from Titian’s house in Pieve di Cadore, with large free carpark.
Update of January 10: Given the excellent visibility obtained from the event, the exhibition has been extended until the morning of Easter Monday, April 18, 2022.
