The See-Green product line has been a mainstay for many scleral lens users for more than ten years. It was developed to address the special needs of people who use large scleral lenses, and is uniquely helpful in many ways.
These products are an example of special niche products designed and refined by truly dedicated people. They are very thoughtfully designed and are manufactured to the highest standards.
The Lens Inserter consists of a modified plunger with a green LED light and battery pack. It shines a green light up through the plunger.
Functionally, the hand-held lighted inserter can be a useful aid for lens application for any scleral lens user. Focusing on the light helps ensure that the lens will be centered on the eye and it helps reduce likelihood of bubbles, since proper centering also means less likelihood of too much spilled saline, so long as the lid spread is sufficient.
This device is particularly appreciated by people with low vision, and those with only one seeing eye, and those who struggle with lens centering for any reason at all.
Can you make your own? People do. But there are safety issues involved - i.e. the combination of electricity and saline, near your eyes. Above all, make sure your lens provider has vetted any device you use with your sclerals. See-Green is a tried and trusted brand.
At first glance you might not appreciate all the effort that went into the design of this products. In this age of commoditized-everything, I think craftsmanship can easily go overlooked. Are there alternative stands? Absolutely - there are a few on the market (both cheap and expensive) and people are always making their own (and, as I said before, if you try that please be very careful). But for most people who use stands, this really is the best.
The manufacturer also offers outstanding warranty support.
This particular kit is for people who need the lighted inserter but NOT the stand.
