Specialty contact lens companies combine to form Wave Eye Care
EyePrint Prosthetics, Advanced Vision Technologies and Wave Contact Lens System have combined to form Wave Eye Care, a new specialty contact lenses division, according to a press release.
The three companies, which individually focused on specialty contact lens fitting, will now collaborate to offer a range of fully customized solutions, including orthokeratology lenses, scleral lenses and corneal gas-permeable lenses.
“With over 50 years of combined expertise in designing and manufacturing fully customized contact lenses, our mission is clear — to provide the best specialty contact lens solutions for every patient,” Michael Wolber, CEO at Wave Eye Care, said in the release.
The new division will offer a comprehensive set of tools, hands-on training and professional support designed to improve patient outcomes, including:
- EyePrint impression technology (EyePrint Prosthetics), which will allow for accurate management of complex corneal irregularities;
- advanced computer-aided design/manufacturing software, for precise lens creation with the use of the topography-based Wave lens designer; and
- collaborative consulting, so practitioners can partner with experienced consultants to create custom lens designs based on individual requirements.
