X-Cel adds a custom soft lens design for irregular corneas

Article

X-Cel Contacts recently added the Flexlens ARC (Atypical Refractive Correction) custom soft lens to its collection of irregular cornea designs.

Duluth, GA-X-Cel Contacts recently added the Flexlens ARC (Atypical Refractive Correction) custom soft lens to its collection of irregular cornea designs. This lens will be manufactured at X-Cel’s manufacturing facility in Duluth, GA.

The Flexlens ARC is a custom soft lens design that fits like a regular toric contact lens. With no need to calculate peripheral curves or other parameters, the Flexlens ARC is easy to fit, thus reducing chair time. This lens utilizes a standard back-surface fitting curve, precise axis, cylinder, and an enhanced center thickness to stabilize the correction over an aberrated cornea. 

The Flexlens ARC is indicated for the correction of various ocular conditions including:

• Keratoconus

• Pellucid marginal degeneration

• Corneal transplants

• Post refractive surgery

• Any irregular cornea conditions.
