Chaoshili Selected as Founding Member of China's First National Optometry and Vision Standards Technical Committee

ShijiazhuangAugust 26, 2022PR Newswire -- To implement the "National Standardization Development Outline" and improve the professional standardization technical organization system, the National Standardization Management Committee has newly established 10 new technology committees. Recently, the first National Ophthalmic Optometry Standardization Technical Committee (SAC/TC596) was officially established, and Uper Vision successfully elected as a member of the first committee.

An important mission of the China National Optical and Optometric Standardization Technical Committee is to organize representatives from relevant industries across the country, including universities, hospitals, inspection and testing centers, manufacturers, and sales enterprises, to jointly take charge of the development and revision of national standards in areas such as management, terminology, products and equipment, testing methods, and services within the field of optometry and optical health. As one of the members of the Ophthalmic Optics Subcommittee (ISO/TC172/SC7), Uper Vision, a nationally-operated brand specializing in vision health for middle-aged and elderly individuals, has been actively promoting standardized services since its establishment in 2009.

Traditional reading glasses can only be used for near vision, not for distance vision, and wearing them while walking or driving is not possible. Some middle-aged and elderly individuals, after experiencing presbyopia, skip the refraction test and directly purchase ready-made reading glasses from street vendors or online. This non-standard and non-regulated approach to wearing glasses ignores individual differences in vision conditions among different people and has already been phased out by modern standards.

Only high standards lead to high quality. Promoting innovative, coordinated, green, open, and shared development through standards is an important measure to implement the new development philosophy and drive the high-quality development of the optometry industry.

Uper Vision, centered on a membership system, prioritizes customer comfort and satisfaction in eyewear fitting. All new-style varifocal customization centers across China adhere to "unified brand, unified standards, unified service." Through 26 professional vision tests, customized eyewear solutions are provided one-on-one based on each customer's vision condition, eye usage needs, and lifestyle habits. This ensures more accurate prescriptions and greater wearing comfort, earning widespread market and customer acclaim.

Uper Vision's new type of multifocal glasses adopt progressive focus technology, go through 68 manufacturing processes, and are suitable for both nearsightedness and presbyopia, as well as for seeing both near and far. One pair of glasses is enough for different occasions such as reading, using a mobile phone, working on a computer, walking, driving, and attending meetings. It eliminates the trouble of frequently switching between multiple pairs of glasses, offering clarity and convenience. Renowned singer Jiang Dawei and celebrity Li Lingyu are among the beneficiaries of Uper Vision's new type of multifocal glasses.

The official establishment of the China National Standardization Technical Committee for Optometry and Optical Instruments is both a milestone and a new starting point, which will fully leverage the important role of standards in the high-quality development of the optometry industry. Uper Vision now has over 80 stores across China, and all members of Uper Vision will remain true to their mission, lead by example, continuously raise the "standards," and better serve society and the public.
