The Durasoft 2 Phemfilcon A Optifit Toric Contact Lenses were cleared through the FDA 510(k) pathway on March 20, 2000. Manufactured by Wesley Jessen, they are classified as Class 2 medical devices.
What It Is
These are soft contact lenses made from phemfilcon A, a hydrophilic material that retains moisture and allows oxygen permeability. The toric design is specifically tailored to correct astigmatism by aligning with the natural shape of the cornea. The lenses offer comfort and clear vision for individuals with astigmatic refractive errors.
Clinical Applications
These lenses are commonly prescribed in optometry and ophthalmology practices for patients with astigmatism who prefer contact lenses over glasses. They are suitable for daily wear and can be used in various settings, including routine eye exams and vision correction consultations. The lenses cater to a wide range of patients, from teenagers to adults, seeking an alternative to spectacles.
Indications for Use
The lenses are indicated for the correction of refractive astigmatism in patients who have healthy eyes and require vision correction. They are suitable for individuals who prefer contact lenses for aesthetic or functional reasons.
Practical Considerations
These lenses are available in various sizes to fit different corneal shapes and prescriptions. Proper fitting by an eye care professional is essential to ensure comfort and effectiveness. They are compatible with most standard contact lens solutions for cleaning and storage.
