S5 Inserter for Scleral & Hybrid Lens Insertion – Adjustable Height, With Free Video Training Included

Height-Adjustable, Hands-Free Lens Insertion for Standing Use

Product Summary

The S5 Inserter is a hands-free insertion stand for scleral and hybrid contact lenses. It holds the lens steady and lights it from below, so the wearer has both hands free to hold their eyelids apart instead of balancing the lens on one fingertip. It was developed by optometrist Dr. Fayiz Mahgoub.

What separates this model from the S5 Mini is height adjustment. The lens holder rises from 10.5 inches to 2 feet 6 inches, which allows insertion while standing at a counter or bathroom mirror rather than sitting and leaning over a table. For anyone whose routine is built around the bathroom sink, this is the model that fits.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Adjustable Height, 10.5 Inches to 2 Feet 6 Inches – Sets the lens at the patient's own working height for standing insertion
  • Hands-Free Lens Stabilization – Holds the lens steady so both hands stay free to hold the eyelids apart
  • LED Light Source – Illuminates the lens so the eye can be aligned with its center during insertion
  • Reduces Solution Spillage – A stable lens holds its saline, which helps avoid trapped air bubbles under the lens
  • No Bending Required – The lens comes up to the wearer rather than the wearer down to the lens
  • Unlimited One-on-One Coaching – Direct access to Dr. Mahgoub and his team, 7 days a week

When It Helps

  • For insertion standing at a bathroom mirror or kitchen counter, at the wearer's own height
  • When leaning forward over a table is not a comfortable way to insert
  • When the lens will not stay balanced on a fingertip long enough to insert
  • When the eye closes before the lens seats, because both hands are needed to hold the lids apart
  • When saline spills out of the lens on the way to the eye, leaving air bubbles underneath
  • For a wearer who is new to scleral or hybrid lenses and still building an insertion routine

How It Works

  1. Set the height. Adjust the lens holder so the lens sits at a comfortable level for the patient standing upright, anywhere from 10.5 inches to 2 feet 6 inches.
  2. Seat the lens. Place the scleral or hybrid lens bowl-up in the lens holder and fill it with preservative-free saline.
  3. Switch on the LED. The light illuminates the lens from beneath so the patient can see and align with its center.
  4. Hold both eyelids open. With the stand supporting the lens, both hands are free to hold the upper and lower lids apart.
  5. Lower onto the lens. The patient lowers the eye onto the lens until it seats, then blinks to release.

Training & Support

Every S5 Inserter includes unlimited one-on-one insertion coaching with Dr. Mahgoub and his team, available 7 days a week by phone, text, email, and video chat. For a practice, this is chair time you do not have to spend: insertion training can be routed to the manufacturer instead of filling another appointment slot.

Choosing Between the S5 Inserter and the S5 Mini

  • S5 Inserter (DER5556) – Height adjusts from 10.5 inches to 2 feet 6 inches. For patients who prefer to insert standing at a counter or mirror
  • S5 Mini (DER5555) – Fixed 5.5 inch height, compact, carrying case included. For seated insertion and for patients who travel

Both models share the same hands-free stabilization, the same LED alignment light, and the same unlimited coaching. Height adjustment and posture are the only functional differences.
