Using a Custom Soft Lens to Build your Practice – SpecialEyes 54 Multifocal Toric [#R052]

The SpecialEyes 54 Multifocal is a custom soft contact lens option for your presbyopic patients. It is unique in that you can custom tailor the optics to each patient’s individual pupil size via the SpecialEyes Multifocal Simulator.

In this fun ODwire.org Radio show, Drs. Matthew Lampa and Moshe Schwartz discuss both the clinical and practice-building aspects of this lens.

We get into:

How the lens fits into their daily practices, and what makes a good candidate for the lens.
The importance of customization in obtaining a good fit.
How much chair time a fit takes.
The process of getting the lens ordered, made and delivered from SpecialEyes.
The Cost to the patient (and to the clinician!)
How the lens has helped build their contact lens practices, built loyalty among their patients, and generated positive word of mouth!

Thanks again to SpecialEyes for being a site sponsor — their support is appreciated!

Acuvue Oasys 1-Day: New Product Launch, Exclusive Interviews: Manufacturing & QC [#R50-3]

You may not think a lot about where contact lenses come from, but ponder this: a daily disposable needs 30x the number of lenses that a monthly does.

How does one scale up to consistently produce a new product like this? In a wide parameter range, no less? (Acuvue Oasys 1-Day will cover +8 to -12 at launch, and nearly 20,000 fit sets will be produced within the first several months, so all fitters that want to will have a crack at it.)

I got a tour of the production facility and was able to interview Tim Ryan, JJVC’s Plant Manager, and Mike Alleva, World Wide VP of Operations to talk about this new production lines & how they have been able to produce the lens in the quantities that will be needed right out of the chute.
