Maximum Astigmatism

MetroSoft Max stands for “maximum astigmatism,” ideal for your patients whose visual needs can’t be met with glasses or standard daily contact lenses.

Lens Parameters

The MetroSoft Max can correct up to 8.00D of astigmatism, and we deliver the lenses to you in about a week.

Base curve: 8.1 to 8.9 depending on material
Power: -12.00 to +12.00
Diameter: 14.0, 14.2 depending on lens design
Prism: 1 Diopter

Extended parameters are available.

Ideal Patient

Any astigmatic case with up to 8.00 diopters of corneal cylinder.

Stable Vision

The Metro Soft Max is indicated  for patients with 2.00D or more of corneal astigmatism. The cylinder correction is incorporated into the back surface of the lens, which aligns with the irregular curvature of the cornea.

This results in a “saddle-fit,” which stabilizes the lens on the cornea, improving comfort and VA compared to a spherical contact lens.

Latheable Materials

Our soft contact lens line is available in three materials, listed below. Our consultants will work with you to determine the best material for your patient, with ocular surface health as our top priority.

Planned replacement is at the discretion of the doctor. The life of the lens will depend on how well the patient cares for the lenses. Multi-packs are available up to annual supply.
