MATERIALS INNOVATION
ClearGMA™ – bringing the benefits of biocompatibility to wearers Contact lens wearers can now receive the ocular benefits and convenience of Clearlab®’s innovative biocompatible material ClearGMA™:

•   • Enhanced comfort, especially at end of day
    • Increased wearing times
    • Improvements in ocular health
    • Ease of handling and fitting

Clinical studies have confirmed that wearers prefer Clear1-day™ to leading brands in terms of comfort and end of day wetting. These studies also demonstrated to practitioners that the single fit design provides a lens that is exceptionally easy to fit, reducing chair time. Its biocompatible properties will also reduce wearer complications. The benefits of ClearGMA™ are also available in the unique aspheric frequent replacement lens Clearall-day™.

The Search Continues - Our investment in improving the performance of contact lenses through better materials continues, both internally and in partnership with leading research bodies. The areas we are investigating include:

•   • Higher dk materials - to improve ocular health
    • Alternative polymer types that target ocular dryness and deposition
    • Storage efficacy

INNOVATION IN LENS DESIGN
Improving wearer’s vision through wavefront technology. The biocompatible Clearall-day™ lens has been enhanced with aberration correcting aspheric optics to optimize the overall wearing experience. The optics incorporate innovative wavefront design and technology which enhances wearers vision providing:

•   • Optimized visual acuity across the power range
    • Improving contrast sensitivity, particularly important to night time vision
    • Improved vision for wearers with low levels of astigmatism

The Search Continues - Through attention to detail in all aspects of lens design, optics, edge profile, lens thickness and the understanding of the interface with lens materials, Clearlab®’s lens designers are recognized for their innovation in a wide range of modalities. We continue to develop innovative designs that both improve visual performance for wearers with myopia, hypermatropia, astigmatism and presbyopia and also deliver the benefits of advanced biocompatible materials. Greater comfort, less corneal distress and improved end of day and wetting are just a few of the improvements in ocular health that the wearer can expect.

INNOVATION IN ALL OUR ACTIVITIES
For Clearlab® innovation does not apply only to the products we offer, it spans all aspects of our business. Our production engineers strive for state of the art processes to ensure we are able to maintain a competitive advantage for our customers and provides value added products for lens wearers.

ABOUT CLEAR1-DAY™
The biocompatibility of ClearGMA™ is achieved through synthesizing the compatibility properties of mucin, the body’s natural wetting substance.

The lens has a tapered edge design together with a flexible conforming material to optimize comfort, handling and fit. Aspheric optics have been introduced to minimize aberrations, and enhance visual acuity across the power range.

Clear1-day™ is now available for hypermatropes as well as myopes. The range of powers available to myopes has been extended to -10.00D. A range from +0.50D to +4.00D is available for the hypermatrope. More wearers will therefore be able to benefit from the superior performance of the world’s first biocompatible daily disposable lens.
 

CLEAR CONTACT LENSES
Contact lenses wearing regimes differ from market to market. Clearlab® recognizes that the needs of the wearers in each market can vary, often as a result of their lifestyles, their occupational needs and their habits relating to ocular care. For each of these needs, Clearlab® has a range of contact lens products that enables our customers to compete according to the needs of the respective market segments. Our product range covers a variety of materials and lens designs that offers our customers competitive advantage in their respective marketplace.

Our Superior product range combines our innovative biocompatible material ClearGMA™ with aspheric optical geometry and offers wearers the advantages of all day comfort, longer wearing times and improved ocular health. The Premium range includes a wide range of conventional lens materials and lens designs providing customers with an unrivalled range of options to build a portfolio of products to meet their customers’ needs from all segments of the market.

SUPERIOR RANGE
Clearlab’s successful combination of the biocompatibility of ClearGMA™ with innovative lens designs and manufacturing process has created the Superior range of products to suit today’s lifestyles offering:

•   • Enhanced comfort, all day every day
    • Extended “comfortable” wearing times
    • Wearer preference over leading brands
    • Improved ocular health - fewer complications, reduced follow up

With the flexibility of daily and frequent replacement wearing regimes.

ABOUT CLEARALL-DAY™
Clearlab’s innovative engineers, scientists and clinical experts have successfully combined the ocular benefits of a biocompatible material – ClearGMA™- with the clinical simplicity of a unique aspheric disposable lens – Clearall-day™. Clearall-day™ is suitable for frequent replacement. The biocompatability of ClearGMA™ is achieved through synthesising the compatibility properties of mucin, the body’s natural wetting substance.

ClearGMA™ has water binding properties that enhance resistance to dehydration and increase lens surface wettability providing a greater affinity for water than ordinary contact lens materials. Wearers benefit from longer, more comfortable wearing times providing them with a truly comfortable all day lens. ENHANCING OCULAR PERFORMANCE
Proclear Compatibles® is the current bench-mark contact lens for biocompatibility. Clearlab®’s scientists and engineers were set the challenge of designing a contact lens that was superior to the overall benefits of Proclear Compatibles® through its material, enhanced vision, and ease of handling. The result is Clearall-day™ - the unique aspheric biocompatible frequent
replacement lens from Clearlab®.

ENHANCED VISION - ASPHERIC OPTICS
The biocompatible Clearall-day™ lens has been enhanced with aberration correcting aspheric optics to optimize the overall wearing experience. The optics incorporate innovative wavefront design
and technology on the front surface of the lens.
Visual acuity is optimized over the power range and the optical design is tailored to provide maximum contrast sensitivity particularly in low illumination where it is needed most.

Patients who normally require low amounts of toric correction can benefit from Clearall-day™ lenses as the aspheric optical design can successfully mask low levels of astigmatism. The combination of aberration correcting aspheric optics and longer wetting and wearing times confirms Clearall-day™ as a truly unique lens.
