The Largan 55 UV Color Ocufilcon D lens was cleared via the FDA 510(k) pathway on November 1, 2018. Manufactured by Largan Medical, it is classified as a Class 2 medical device.
What It Is
The Largan 55 UV Color Ocufilcon D is a soft contact lens designed for daily wear. Made from ocufilcon D, a hydrophilic material, it provides comfort and moisture retention. The lens also offers UV protection, making it suitable for patients who spend time outdoors. Its color tint enhances aesthetic appeal while aiding in handling.
Clinical Applications
This contact lens is commonly used in optometry and ophthalmology clinics for patients requiring vision correction due to refractive errors such as myopia or hyperopia. It is suitable for a wide range of patients, including those with active lifestyles who benefit from the UV protection. The lens is typically prescribed in outpatient settings and can be part of routine eye care.
Indications for Use
The FDA indications suggest this lens is for patients needing vision correction and UV protection. It is ideal for individuals with refractive errors who prefer contact lenses over glasses, especially those exposed to sunlight.
Practical Considerations
The lens is available in various diopters to accommodate different levels of vision correction. It is designed for daily wear, meaning it should be removed before sleep. Compatibility with standard contact lens solutions is expected, facilitating easy care and maintenance.
