LensBase makes insertion tools for contact lenses. Two are stocked here: a single LensBase Contact Lens Inserter, and a ten pack of LensBase Silicone Contact Lens Inserters listed for scleral, hybrid and soft lenses.
Larger lenses are difficult to place with a fingertip. A scleral lens is filled with saline before it goes on the eye, and it has to stay level on the way there so the fluid does not run out and leave a bubble underneath. A holder keeps the lens flat and the fluid where it belongs, and it keeps fingers off the optical surface at the same time. Plenty of soft lens wearers use one too, simply because it is steadier than a fingertip.
The single inserter is the everyday tool: one item, cleaned and reused. The ten pack is silicone and suits people who want to rotate through several, keep one in more than one place, or replace them on a schedule rather than cleaning the same one indefinitely. Insertion tools do wear, and having spares means never being caught without one on a morning you are already late.
Buy the single if you are trying the format for the first time and are not sure it will suit you. Buy the ten pack if you already know you use an inserter every day, travel with one, or share a home with another lens wearer.
If you are new to scleral lenses, ask your fitter to watch you insert once using the tool you plan to keep. Technique and tool go together, and a small correction early saves a great deal of frustration later. Both products sit in our Contact Lens Supplies and Scleral Lens Supplies categories.
