iD MyStyle® 3 and iD WorkStyle® 3 to Share HOYA’s Best Technology Platform Lead by AdaptEase™ Technology

Design and innovation come together to create two powerful new progressive lens options for Canadian eye care professionals to prescribe

MISSISSAUGA, ON, Oct. 3, 2024 /CNW/ — Ophthalmic lens technology leader HOYA Vision Care announced the Canadian launch of iD MyStyle® 3 and iD WorkStyle® 3 with AdaptEase™ Technology as the newest progressive lenses available for eye care professionals (ECPs) nationwide to order today.

Internal research conducted by HOYA shows higher wearer satisfaction, with patients reporting 56% faster adaption¹, 57% less fatigue¹, 61% less swaying¹, and three times less peripheral deformation².

“We’ve introduced a groundbreaking technology that makes it easier than ever for patients to adapt, even those with the highest demands,” said Steven Haifawi, President of HOYA Vision Care, Canada. “As individuals’ visual needs have evolved, so have our lens designs. AdaptEase™ has elevated lens design to an entirely new level, and we are excited to bring this versatile innovation to the market.”

The key feature of the iD MyStyle 3 and iD WorkStyle 3 lens is the addition of AdaptEase™Technology, which leads to faster adaption and clearer vision by reducing peripheral astigmatic distortion. Also new to these designs is 3D Binocular Vision™ technology. It significantly reduces peripheral distortion, creating a more comfortable and stable visual experience. Combining AdaptEase Technology with 3D Binocular Vision and HOYA’s other leading binocular technologies uniquely benefits those with different prescriptions in each eye.

Historically, iD MyStyle has been the most personalized progressive lens, with nearly 400 design variations available when ECPs use the MyStyle iDentifier™ questionnaire with their patients. One of many unique aspects of the MyStyle iDentifier is it considers the satisfaction of the previous lens design worn.

iD MyStyle 3 has five convenience options: Tyro, Expert, Detail, Modern, and Adventure. The newest option is Tyro, which means “novice” or “beginner.” Tyro is specially designed to help new progressive lens wearers adapt quickly.

iD WorkStyle 3 is an occupational lens designed to maximize comfort throughout the workday. It is a better primary pair of glasses for patients who spend most of their day at work or play in an office or up-close environment. iD WorkStyle 3 includes three existing design variations: Space, Screen, and Zoom. Each design can be personalized to the primary type of work a patient engages in.

Eye care providers will receive HOYA’s signature comprehensive support and training, ensuring seamless integration into their practice. The iD MyStyle 3 and iD WorkStyle 3 designs will be compatible with HOYA’s leading AR portfolio, including Super HiVision® Meiryo™ EX4™ and available in all materials, including Sensity® photochromics.

Visionary Insiders loyalty program members can earn points toward iD MyStyle 3 and iD WorkStyle 3 orders for their patients. To learn more about HOYA Canada’s full suite of progressive lenses, ECPs can visit online and speak to their HOYA Territory Manager.
