KeraSoft IC
KeraSoft IC
KeraSoft®IC is a lens designed for Irregular Corneas. It is available in two forms:
1. Steep/Standard/Flat periphery
2. Sector Management Control
Steep/Standard/Flat periphery
This form is used when fitting corneas that have mild ectasia and flat peripheries or require a steep periphery and a flatter central area, e.g. post graft and post refractive surgery cases
Sector Management Control (SMC)
KeraSoft®IC Sector Management Control (SMC) allows individual customisation of the lens periphery to enhance fit, vision and comfort – a concept known in RGP design but until now, this has not been achieved in Silicone Hydrogel material. It is especially suitable for corneas where there are large differences between the flattest and the steepest areas. Although Pellucid Marginal Degeneration (PMD) is an obvious choice for this design of lens, classical keratoconus can also present with a large contrast between steep and flat areas and the SMC design can improve stability and acuity on such corneas. It is also particualrly useful for post lasik ecastias, where extra steepening may need to be applied in one area to a lens that already has reverse geometry.
