Bausch + Lomb announced that it will begin work on a storage case designed specifically for scleral lenses.

The company’s Specialty Vision Products business has received 510(k) clearance from the FDA to develop the case, according to a press release from the company.

Named the Boston, the case will be able to hold lenses up to 23.5 mm in diameter and up to 10 mm in sagittal depth. It is intended for use with other products in the line including Boston original conditioning solution, Boston Advance formula conditioning solution and Boston Simplus multi-action solution.

“The introduction of our new Boston scleral lens case addresses an unmet need of eye care professionals and patients,” John Ferris, general manager, U.S. Vision Care, Bausch + Lomb, said in the release. “Our latest innovation is specifically designed to store scleral lenses and demonstrates our commitment to providing innovations for custom lens patients.”
