PRODUCT SHOWCASE Contact Lens
A New Level Of Accuracy For Scleral Topography
Myopia Control Lens Available To More Patients
CooperVision MiSight 1 day contact lenses are now available in higher prescriptions. The expanded range covers -0.25D to -10.00D (0.50D steps after -6.00D)— which means that MiSight 1 day now covers 99.97% of prescriptions for Asian children – and 99.97% for Caucasian children – who have myopia and less than 1D of astigmatism.¹ The diopter extension for this innovative, specially designed lens will allow even more children to benefit from myopia management.
MiSight 1 day contact lenses are backed by the longest-running soft contact lens study among children.

OPTOPOL REVO SD-OCT 'A MUST HAVE' FOR CONTACT LENS FITTING
Optopol REVO
SD-OCT has a built-in anterior lens allowing the user to perform anterior segment imaging without installing an additional lens or forehead adapter. Now practitioners can display the whole anterior segment using a radial scan to view 18mm wide 6mm deep for various angles. This is a standard feature in any of the five REVO models.
T-OCT is a pioneering way to provide detailed corneal curvature maps by using posterior dedicated OCT. Anterior, posterior surfaces and corneal thickness provide the True Net Curvature information. With the net power, a precise understanding of the patient’s corneal condition is generated easily and free of errors associated with modelling of posterior surface. The REVO T-OCT module provides axial maps, tangential maps, total mower map, height maps, epithelium and corneal thickness maps.
Practitioners can customise their favoured view by selecting various maps and display options. Fully Automatic Capture with examination time of up to 0.2 sec makes testing simple. The T-OCT follow-up feature offers the ability to compare corneal topography changes over time in LASIK, keratoconus and contact lens wearers.

Pentacam, utilising Scheimpflug technology, has long been relied upon for accurate corneal surface data for contact lens fitting. OCULUS took this further by developing the cornea scleral profile (CSP) to also capture scleral topography in a non-invasive way. Together with sagittal height data, this provides users with all necessary parameters for fitting scleral lenses.
Supplied by Designs For Vision, the Pentacam and Pentacam HR models can accurately preform CSP by capturing five scans which are automatically combined to create one cornea scleral map. However, for the ultimate user experience and reproducible data, the newest model, Pentacam AXL Wave, offers CSP Pro. This allows capture of more than 20 mm diameter in a single scan – described as a clear industry stand out – with both CSP Report and CSP Pro software able to link to the databases of several contact lens manufacturers, allowing for easy data transfer to the appropriate external lens calculator.

Triple Action Targets All Layers Of The Tear Film
Cationorm (cationic nanoemulsion) is a preservative-free, hydrating and lubricating emulsion eye drop which protects the eye surface, relieving the discomfort and irritation of persistent dry eye caused by prolonged use of contact lenses, or environmental conditions.1
Its triple action repairs the lipid layer to reduce evaporation by lubricating and stabilising the tear film, and restores the moisture balance in the muco-aqueous layer of the tear film. It also forms a barrier to lock in moisture, giving dry eyes the time they need to heal. 2,3,4,5
Administered as one drop, up to four-times daily in the affected eye, Cationorm is suitable for use with contact lenses, 6 and gentle enough to use every day.7
