A new Lunara™ clinical case study is now available.

Roxanne Achong-Coan, OD, FAAO, FIAOMC, transitioned an 18-year-old patient with 10 years of Paragon CRT® Dual Axis wear to Lunara using the same habitual lens parameters.

At the one-month follow-up, the patient was plano with 20/15 uncorrected visual acuity OD, OS and OU, well-centered treatment zones, and improved reported lens comfort.

Dr. Coan described the fitting process as “familiar, predictable, and efficient, with a workflow very similar to CRT.”
