Menicon R&D has inherited Kyoichi Tanaka’s determination to “never give up and to continue questioning everything with challenging spirits.” As a result, Menicon continues to evolve as an enterprise of passionate and innovative specialists.

Menicon R&D covers all areas of research including: basic and applied research on material development, lens designing and manufacturing of contact lenses and care solutions.

In cooperation with independent institutions (i.e. university hospitals, ophthalmology and optometry departments), we thoroughly ensure the safety and efficacy of our contact lenses and care products.
