This product line has been a mainstay for many scleral lens users for at least the last ten years. It was developed to address the special needs many large scleral lens users face.
The Lens Inserter is basically a modified plunger with a green LED light and battery pack. It shines a green light up through the plunger.
This kit is appropriate for people who just need the light aspect but not the stand, or who need a replacement lighted system.
Please note that this light can't be used with a regular DMV vented scleral cup (the opening is too big). If you need spare plungers, please purchase the ones that are specifically for this system.
Are you a do-it-yourself looking to save money? Understandable, but please use caution. Combining saline and a light source can be dangerous.

This will be my third unit in 5 years. The problem is any saline that you spill wicks down the cord and into the unit, there it corrodes the batteries and kills the unit. Hoped that the change to the newer model a design a couple of of years ago would fix this problem, but, alas, not so. This time am sealing where the cord enters the unit on this one with some silicone sealant - hopefully I will not have to get unit # 4.
NOTE - I bought from Dalsy adaptives directly, and they DID replace the unit for free.
SO - great to use, but be aware of this potential issue.

Works great. Wish price was a bit lower. It seems everytime it breaks down the price has jumped up by$20.00. I know, it's supply and demand. I get it.

Thanks for the review. I'm glad it's working for you. I'm sorry you feel it's overpriced! For the record I don't think we've raised the price since we added this to the shop (which is, I'm thinking close to two years now?), but I also imagine we will have to raise the price on this product line within the coming as it's actually got an unusually law margin. Specialty items can often be purchased more cheaply direct from the manufacturer, in case that's helpful :)
I first bought my See Green Lens Inserter 10 years ago (2010) when it was made by one man and was dirt cheap. I still use the same unit! It finally needed new batteries for the first time in 2019. These units last forever!
My green light inserter has gone with me to Europe several times and has been a great help, especially when I am in an unfamiliar setting, or low-light situation, and need extra guidance in inserting my scleral lenses. Who am I kidding? I need this unit even when I am at home!
If you are having trouble getting your scleral lenses in place, without the dreaded bubble, then you need this product!

This inserted with light is wonderful
I had enormous trouble putting in my contacts and even scratched my cornea due to low vision I couldn’t see what I was doing
Now I stare at the bright light and get the contacts in on the first try!
