Menicon
Z has succeeded to develop new material
and design for gas permeable lens, as the
result of the long time research and development,
which enable to offer all the wearers benefits
of long term corneal health, vision, comfort
and wettability in order to reduce the burden
to the cornea. Menicon Z will provide you
supreme eye life with comfortable wear.

Past technology for rigid gas lens used
to make the strength of lens material weaken
as relatively increasing its oxygen permeability.
However Menicon tried advancing the new
lens material that enabled to enhance both
oxygen permeability and material strength.
That is the development of new polymer with
composing novel syloxanylstyrene, fluoromethacrylate
and benzotriazol UV absorber. This chemical
structure results in excellent mechanical
properties, allowing the lens to be made
significantly thinner than a typical rigid
gas lens.
