What It Is

The Smart Performer 55 Ocufilcon D is a soft contact lens made from a hydrophilic material, ocufilcon D, designed to correct refractive errors in the eye. These lenses are intended to be worn on the cornea and provide a comfortable fit due to their water-absorbing properties. They are typically used for daily wear and can be a convenient alternative to glasses for many patients.

FDA-Cleared Indications

  • Correction of refractive errors with a soft hydrophilic contact lens.
  • Use on the cornea for vision correction in patients prescribed contact lenses.
  • Use in daily-wear contact lens applications when prescribed and fitted by an eye-care professional.

Clinical Applications

  • Vision correction for myopia, or nearsightedness, when included in the prescribed lens parameters.
  • Vision correction for hyperopia, or farsightedness, when included in the prescribed lens parameters.
  • Correction of astigmatism when an appropriate lens design and prescription are available.
  • Daily-wear use as an alternative to eyeglasses under professional fitting and follow-up.

Practical Considerations

  • The lens must be fitted and prescribed by an optometrist or ophthalmologist; available parameters, base curves, diameters and powers should be confirmed in the product labeling.
  • Follow the prescribed wearing schedule and cleaning or disinfecting instructions. Do not use tap water or saliva to clean or store contact lenses.
  • Patients with eye infection, significant inflammation, unexplained redness or pain should remove the lens and seek professional evaluation.
  • Contact lenses are not evaluated as MRI implants and generally do not require MRI precautions; the lens should be removed if advised by the imaging facility or eye-care professional.
  • Proper hand hygiene, replacement at the prescribed interval and routine eye examinations are important because improper use can increase the risk of corneal injury or infection.
