CooperVision at opti 2026: Myopia Management and lifelong contact lens wear in the spotlight at the trade fair
From January 16 to 18, 2026, the optical industry will gather for the annual kick-off trade fair opti in Munich. CooperVision will once again be present with a booth in 2026. At the center: the future of vision – from myopia management to innovative solutions for lifelong contact lens wear.
Myopia Management: Act Now, Secure the Future
The MiSight® 1 day daily disposable contact lens has proven to be an effective tool for slowing the progression of myopia (nearsightedness) in children. Studies show it can reduce myopia progression by up to 59%.1‡ “There’s no time to lose once myopia is detected,” emphasizes Dr. Ole Roßbach, Head of Marketing & Professional Affairs at CooperVision. “Those who don’t start myopia management now will face a clear competitive disadvantage. We look forward to meeting eye care professionals who seize this opportunity – because only those who lead by example will convince new contact lens wearers.”
Performance Meets Potential
What comes after proven performance? At opti 2026, CooperVision will provide the answer – with an innovation that takes myopia management to the next level. Details? CooperVision will reveal them exclusively at booth 217 in hall C4. In addition, the team will present the new risk analysis module – developed in collaboration with Dr. Michael Bärtschi. This tool supports parent consultations and makes it easier to actively implement myopia management in practice.
Meet & Greet with Experts
Hands-on exchange is also in focus: At the popular Meet & Greets with Conny Hermann and Dr. Michael Bärtschi, interested visitors can ask questions about myopia management and working with MiSight® 1 day without prior registration. Why is the topic so urgent? Dr. Bärtschi sums it up: “Every diopter you miss, you can’t get back!” – a clear call to actively address myopia management.
