We aim to support the healthy daily lives and growth of children through their 'eyes'. We believe that 'Protecting 'eyes' is nurturing future 'buds'' and are working on the 'SEED Children's Eyes Future Project'. This project is based on the concept of parents, ophthalmologists, specialists, and our company forming a team to watch over and nurture the future of each child. Moving forward, we will not only provide products but also continue to disseminate information and conduct awareness activities to protect children's eye health through this project, supporting children worldwide.

As one of the initiatives of this project, we have launched a website. Original characters 'Memamon' and 'Manae' appear, and various information about children's eyes, the mechanism of vision, and common eye conditions are introduced in a fun way with illustrations and stories.

We also offer content for parents to learn about 'eyes' together, and a 'Children's Eye SOS Sign Check' to help notice signs of eye discomfort in children. Through small daily actions and changes, we aim to support early detection of abnormalities in children's 'eyes' and facilitate consultation with ophthalmologists at the appropriate time.

We believe that disseminating knowledge and conveying the importance of our precious eyes will lead to a bright future for children...

What we aim for is 'to realize a society where children can create the joy of diverse 'vision''.

*'April Dream' is a project by PR TIMES where companies announce their dreams that they hope to achieve someday on April 1st. We are aiming to achieve this dream.
