Phase Focus Announces the Delivery and Installation of a Lens Profiler Instrument to the Brien Holden Vision Institute in Sydney, Australia

Sheffield, United Kingdom, September 28, 2013 --(PR.com)-- Phase Focus Limited is pleased to announce the successful delivery and installation of a Lens Profiler Instrument to the Brien Holden Vision Institute in Sydney, Australia; one of the world’s leading applied vision correction research institutes. This innovative instrument uses the Phase Focus Virtual Lens® method to provide highly sensitive, precise analysis of power and thickness of soft contact lenses in their hydrated state.

The Phase focus Lens Profiler will allow researchers Dr Klaus Ehrmann and Dr Fabian Conrad, to further advance their work in the optical design of novel soft contact lenses. The Lens Profiler instrument is unique in that it measures thickness, oxygen transmissibility and power of hydrated contact lenses in one instrument, and sets a new standard for soft contact lens metrology.

Quote from Ian Pykett CEO Phase Focus:
“Phase Focus is delighted that Brien Holden Vision Institute decided to invest in our technology and they join some of the world’s major contact lens manufacturers as customers of our equipment. For this prestigious institute to recognize our technology as important to their work validates our continued investment in the area of ophthalmic metrology for the Phase Focus Virtual Lens method.”

Quote from Klaus Ehrmann at Brien Holden Vision Institute:
“We are pleased to take delivery of this system which will help with our lens measurements and designs. After an evaluation of the companies and metrology systems available, the Phase Focus Lens Profiler proved to be the system best suited to our needs and will help our development of the next generation of contact lenses.”
