X-Cel Specialty Contacts, a global leader of specialty gas permeable, including the Atlantis™ Scleral, and custom soft contact lens designs for irregular corneas, announced the launch of REMLens®, a highly adjustable, yet easy-to-fit orthokeratology design for the management of myopia, manufactured exclusively in Boston® Equalens® II material. REMLens® is designed to yield a Rapid Eye MoldingTM effect for patients with low-to-moderate myopic refractive errors.

REMLens® can be prescribed to patients of all ages who are diagnosed with low-to-moderate myopia (up to –5.00D sphere, and up to –1.50D of astigmatism). With an 89% first fit success rate, REMLens offers certified eye care professionals a lens design with a broad range of parameter flexibility, and a significant reduction in chair time when fitting empirically from Ks and Rx. REMLens features four independently adjustable fitting zones, five diameter sizes: each with three optic zone options, and the revolutionary Dynamic Edge Profile™, providing on-eye comfort in an open and closed eye setting.

Additionally, certified eye care professionals utilizing the online REMLens® Calculator can reduce chair time on new fits, or re-fits, and maintain historical patient information through up loadable corneal topography maps, fluorescein images, and video files. The REMLens® Calculator minimizes potential financial loss related to excessive chair time when utilizing multiple diagnostic lenses to achieve an acceptable fit. REMLens tools can also be used to support replacement lenses of other leading Ortho-K lenses, simplifying and eliminating concerns about re-fits. Novice to expert orthokeratologists will appreciate the adjustability beyond what other orthokeratology designs offer.
