October 2022 - Go to FP Designer

The addition of the Edge Vault special feature is a significant advancement in our offerings. This innovative feature enables the creation of one or two vaults on the edge of contact lenses. It holds particular importance in the context of modern GP scleral lenses, which play a crucial role in restoring visual acuity and maintaining ocular surface integrity for individuals with irregular corneas.

Scleral obstacles, such as pingueculas, can significantly impact the shape of the sclera and necessitate careful consideration in scleral lens design. By incorporating small vaults on the contact lens edge, we address the challenge of fitting scleral lenses comfortably and optimally. These vaults serve to minimize discomfort and ensure an optimal fit, enhancing the overall wearing experience for individuals who rely on scleral lenses for visual correction.

Dual Edge Vault

The implementation of the Edge Vault special feature exemplifies our commitment to innovation and continuously pushing the boundaries of contact lens design. By taking into account the unique anatomical considerations and challenges associated with irregular corneas, we strive to provide customized solutions that meet the specific needs of each individual patient.
