Wear it at night.
See clearly all day.
Cilia is the lens your doctor prescribed. It works while your child sleeps — so their vision is clear from the moment they wake up, all day, without glasses or daytime lenses.

Myopia in children gets worse with age
In most children, myopia isn't static. The eye continues to elongate year after year, meaning prescription strength typically increases throughout childhood and into early adulthood.
The window to act is narrow
The years between ages 8 and 18 are when axial elongation is fastest. Slowing that growth during this period has meaningful long-term impact on your child's vision.
Fit is everything
A lens that doesn't match your child's corneal shape precisely won't work well — and won't be safe to use long-term. Cilia exists to solve the fit problem.
AI-designed. Cornea-specific. Built for your child.
Every cornea is different. Cilia's AI maps your child's exact corneal geometry and calculates the optimal lens design before any lens is manufactured. There is no trial-and-error. There is no one-size-fits-all.
The lens is worn for 8 hours overnight. While your child sleeps, it applies gentle, calibrated pressure that temporarily reshapes the central cornea. By morning, the correction holds — and their vision is clear all day without wearing anything.
The effect is not permanent. If your child stops wearing Cilia, vision gradually returns to its previous state. This is by design: the treatment is reversible, controllable, and monitored by your doctor at every step.
The results are measurable.

Precision fitting, powered by AI.
Traditionally, lens fitting involved multiple trial lenses, multiple visits, and significant guesswork. A lens that fits imprecisely causes discomfort, inconsistent vision correction, and over time, risk.
Cilia's AI eliminates that process. It analyzes corneal topography data and models the expected fit and correction outcome before any lens is ordered. Your doctor sees the predicted result. Adjustments are made in software, not on your child's eye.
This is why Cilia-fitted patients reach stable correction faster, with fewer follow-up adjustments.
Precisely matched to your child's cornea
Cilia AI models the exact geometry of your child's eye. Every lens is designed for one patient.
Glasses-free all day
Clear vision at school, during sport, during everything — with nothing worn during waking hours.
Protecting long-term vision
Clinically validated slowing of axial elongation during the years it matters most.
What the process looks like.
Corneal mapping
Your doctor captures a detailed topographic scan of your child's cornea. This data goes directly into Cilia's AI.
AI fit modeling
Cilia calculates the optimal lens geometry and simulates the expected fit. Your doctor reviews and approves before any lens is made.
First fitting
Your child tries the lens. Because the AI has already modeled the fit, first-lens success rates are significantly higher than traditional methods.
Ongoing monitoring
Follow-up appointments every 3 months. Your doctor tracks axial length progress and adjusts as your child grows.
Common questions.
Will Cilia harm my child's eyes?
When fitted correctly and worn according to your doctor's instructions, with regular follow-up appointments, Cilia is safe. Complications are rare and the risk is further reduced by the precision of the AI fitting process. Your doctor will recommend check-ins every 3 months.
Will my child find it uncomfortable?
Some foreign body sensation is normal in the first few days of wear. Most children adapt within a week. If discomfort persists or worsens, contact your doctor.
What happens if my child stops wearing it?
The correction is not permanent. Vision gradually returns to its previous state over several days to weeks after stopping. There is no lasting structural change.
Are there any restrictions on my child's activities?
No. Cilia is worn overnight and removed each morning, so your child goes through the day completely lens-free — no restrictions on sports, swimming, or any other activity. The only precaution is to avoid wearing the lenses in water, which is naturally handled by wearing them only during sleep.
What does the fitting process involve?
Your doctor will take a detailed topography scan of your child's cornea — a quick, non-contact measurement that maps the surface of the eye. The AI then calculates the precise lens geometry needed. Your doctor reviews and approves the result before ordering. A follow-up visit within the first week confirms the fit and response.
How long before my child sees results?
Most children notice meaningful improvement within the first 1–2 weeks. For low to moderate prescriptions — which Cilia is optimally designed for — stable daytime vision is typically achieved within 2–4 weeks.
Can adults wear Cilia?
Yes. While myopia control during childhood is the primary focus, adults benefit from the same overnight correction. If you want clear daytime vision without glasses or daytime lenses, Cilia works equally well for adults. Ask your doctor whether it is right for you.
My doctor mentioned Cilia. How do I proceed?
Ask your doctor's clinic directly — they will manage the topography scan, AI fitting, and ongoing monitoring. Cilia is only available through trained, certified eye care providers.
