Does anyone else have this advert with the creepy AI girl advertising lenses?

[MeAgainAndAgain]

I feel like it’s currently the only advert on Mumsnet. She follows me into every thread. In over 40 years of choosing glasses and lenses I can honestly say I’ve never chosen a lens by name. Isn’t that the opticians job? 🤷‍♀️

Yeah it's wierd

Nooooooooooo. Make it stop!

It looks like a scary child robot, and it’s all the way through this thread.

mm.. lovely AI image.. not.

Aha, it's AI? That explains the full on creepiness. That image is so oddly terrifying!

I'm glad you started this thread because I thought it was probably just me who really found it weird.

Having said that I heartily dislike the majority of the Ads that appear in the MN threads. They certainly would never induce me to investigate the products further let alone buy them.

Yes as others say, it's appearing multiple times on this thread!😲

This is obviously being pushed massively and yes, it's been following me too.

DD has myopia and we were given a leaflet with this image on a few months ago by the optician, now it's followed me here!!

These Stellest lenses that 'can help slow myopia' are an additional £350 for children's spectacles. They also like to make sure to get in that "screens don't help blah" just to try and guilt trip you into buying them.

I didn't buy them.

Yes i always think the ads here are weird. They never seem relevant to me either. A few years ago I had a lot of personal insurance ads by an American company. I’m not American. I’ve never been to America. I wasn’t googling anything about America. Well, when I got so many adverts I googled the company to see what was what, but only after a month of having them.

Triple threat...

She’s everywhere!!!

I’ve noticed with AI women their heads are always too round.

i posted about this yesterday and also asked Lilymumsnet to intervene!! It's got to the stage where I am reading with partially closed eyelids

Me too.
Not sure it is possible that you can ‘slow down myopia’ so I’m very sceptical but I’m definitely not clicking on an advert to find out.
reminds me a bit of my parents telling me my eyes would be square if I watched too much television.
or masturbating would make you blind 🤣

Opticians who offer myopia control HAVE to mention it to you though. It’s not a ‘guilt trip’. The technology really seems to work for the majority of kids who use it. It would be unethical not to present it as an option. Of course a lot of parents can’t or don’t want to pay, or don’t care, but it’s good to raise awareness that myopia can be controlled.

Yes she's haunting me like a Japanese horror movie ghost.

It's not even good advertising, I don't have anyone in my family this would be relevant to. My phone is obviously failing at listening in properly to give me appropriate ads.

Well ... that's increased their advert coverage! ... well done OP! Are they family!!!??? 😂

She is annoying, but it makes a change from all the Turkish holidays.

7 times on this thread alone!!!

Omg it’s after every post on this thread 😂

😂 I rest my case!

I find it really disconcerting a bit like those China dolls people collect. It also annoys me that they have chosen a badly produced AI image rather than actually paying for a child model, slippery slope.

I work in optics. There are myopia control glasses and contact lenses that slow down the progression on a minus prescription, lots of research and trials into it. They only work for children so mumsnet is a good place to be getting the word out. But she is a strange looking young lady.

God knows why they thought that image was remotely appealing!

on the other hand, we got these lenses for one of our kids over a year ago and they appear to have done exactly what they were supposed to do (massively slow down rapidly worsening myopia) so we have been really pleased with them.

Yes! She haunts every page
