INDUSTRY LEADING TECHNOLOGY
Featuring industry-leading CAD technology based on ray-tracing, FocalPoints is the most powerful design tools on the market. FocalPoints gives you a simulation of what you're designing, giving you full control over the design decisions, leading to better quality with less errors, and it allows the Lens Designer to dynamically control the lens geometry through the use of formulas, tables, or reusable links.
DESIGN FASTER, FOCUS ON WHAT MATTERS
The Components approach in FocalPoints Designer allows designers to focus on specific lens aspects, making the process more organized and manageable. Reusable components enable easy application of existing elements to new designs, enhancing efficiency and consistency. Dynamic control through reusable formulas or tables streamlines the design process. Integrated quality control tools allow for simulation and analysis before manufacturing, ensuring top performance and quality.

IMPROVE YOUR DESIGNS
FocalPoints Special Features are proprietary tools designed to simplify and accelerate the work of contact lens designers. Available under royalty, they include powerful options ranging from High Definition to Raytraced Multifocals, Segmented Bifocals to KC Niche designs, and Edge Vaults to Smooth Edge.
ACHIEVE OPTIMAL FIT
FocalPoints reads and interprets data from multiple corneal topographers, using this information to support and enhance the lens fitting process. The fit can be evaluated through an accurate, interactive simulated fluorescein pattern, along with a detailed diagram of the tear layer. Once the initial fit is established, the lens can be precisely fine-tuned by adjusting control points directly on the tear layer, ensuring an optimal balance of fit, comfort, and visual performance.
PROTECT & LICENSE DESIGNS
FocalPoints allows laboratories to securely license proprietary lens designs to other FP-equipped labs. Each licensed lens is fully encrypted, protecting your design logic and preventing any modification. With the integrated Licensing Platform, you can expand distribution, generate additional revenue, and collaborate across a trusted global network, while maintaining full control over your intellectual property and production standards.
SIMPLIFY DOCUMENTATION
The Graphic Module is an advanced drawing and imaging tool, which has been designed to create technical documentation. Being integrated in FocalPoints Designer, all the lens design parameters, geometry and sections can be automatically generated from the design definition thus speeding up the documentation workflow.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Can FocalPoints support my existing lens designs?
Yes. FocalPoints is a CAD/CAM system that allows you to create virtually any lens design geometry. While there is no direct import tool, existing designs can be recreated in the Designer module. Using advanced proprietary tools and simulation features, your lab can refine and standardize designs without starting from scratch, preserving your expertise while gaining greater control, consistency, and flexibility.
Can designers simulate lens behavior before cutting?
Yes. FocalPoints includes advanced simulation tools that allow designers to evaluate lens geometry, optical performance, manufacturing feasibility, and fitting behavior before any physical sample is produced. By working in a virtual environment, labs can significantly reduce the need for trial-and-error cutting, shorten development cycles, and make more informed design decisions early in the process. This approach not only improves efficiency but also helps ensure more consistent and reliable outcomes, especially when working on complex or highly customized lens designs.
Does it work with topography-based fitting?
Yes. FocalPoints supports topography-based fitting workflows by integrating data from a wide range of corneal topographers directly into the design environment. This allows designers to analyze corneal shape in detail, simulate fluorescein patterns, and interactively adjust lens parameters based on real patient data. By bringing fitting and design closer together, FocalPoints enables a more precise, efficient, and controlled process, helping labs achieve better fitting outcomes while reducing the need for iterative adjustments.
Which design tools depend on optional features?
FocalPoints includes a comprehensive set of core design tools, while more advanced capabilities are available as pay-per-use features. These include proprietary technologies such as KC Niche designs, Dual Edge Vaults, HOA Corrections, and advanced ray-tracing functionalities developed for complex or highly customized lens applications. This modular approach allows each lab to start with the capabilities it needs and expand over time, aligning the system with its specific design requirements, level of complexity, and growth plans.
