Summary

This lens insertion aide utilizes the light on your iphone to provide a target when inserting your lens. It also serves as a protective tray to protect your phone from saline solution dripping on it. Finally, it organizes scleral lens supplies.

This is my daily use insertion aid, I plan to come up with a more compact version for travel.

How I Designed This

Solidworks design

            <div><p>Post was designed from diameter of Silicone lens suction cup.<br>Tray and associated organizer features were modeled to fit the accessories supplied by my ophthalmologist's office.<br>I like the flexible TPU, and that may keep yourself from scratching your lens if you forget to put the Silicone cup on the post.
