Indo Maxima was nominated in the Silmo d'Or "Vision" Category

Indo's MAXIMA line of personalized geometry progressive lenses aimed at users with combined visual disabilities (near vision/far vision /astigmatism) was proposed for the Silmo d'Or Prize in the category "Vision". It has been eventually nominated among a total of five nominations in this category. 

MAXIMA is the result of research that was performed in the last three years to extend the Indo line of personalized progressive lens products (aka Eyemade), whose geometry is created based on analysis of a user's visual strategy (the way a user looks at things around him/her), and cut/polished using freeform technologies. The research was performed within the scope of Indo's Work Package in the project Made4U (FP7 Proj 212002). With MAXIMA lenses vision was further improved in terms of clarity, but also in terms of lens thickness and weight. The new lenses are specifically designed based on the frames in which they are to be mounted, and in so doing they have become much thinner and consequently a lot lighter. 

Since the recent launch of the MAXIMA line of products mainly in Iberia, Indo has sold tens of thousands of such lenses. MAXIMA lenses are distinguished with a discrete watermark that is engraved on each individual lens.

This is the first major public recognition of one of the technology innovations achieved within the objectives of Made4U. Our warmest congratulations for this achievement to Indo, its researchers and its research managers.
