1 Take your lens wearers eyes to a healthier place...the journey starts with a clean
2 Recent events have placed a renewed focus on contact lens hygiene Outbreaks of Fusarium keratitis and Acanthamoeba keratitis have reinforced the importance of proper hygiene in contact lens care routines 1 4 AMO has surveyed eyecare professionals and is listening to their need for optimised hygiene An optimised contact lens care routine can help maintain healthy eyes, helping to prevent common events such as: 1 Infl amed eyelids Red/dry eyes Conjunctivitis of the upper and lower lids References: 1. Webb JA. Ophthalmology Times. July Bennett ES. Review of Optometry. April Hellem A. Review of Optometry. April Snyder HN. Contact Lens Spectrum. August In press.
3 Healthier eyes start with a COMPLETE EASY TM A rub and rinse gives a 2-log reduction of commonly found microbes from the lens before the soak starts 1 The COMPLETE MPS EASY TM and rinse routine is designed to signifi cantly enhance lens hygiene Reassuringly, a rub and rinse also provides greater removal of hard-to-eliminate organisms such as Acanthamoeba and fungi than a soak alone Rubbing and rinsing with COMPLETE MPS helps to: Dislodge microbes and debris from the lens surface Remove the protein and lipid deposits that microbes feed on Maintain a comfortable wearing experience particularly with silicone hydrogel lenses Reference: 1. Hom MM, Simmons PA. Contact Lens Spectrum. September 2001.
4 Healthier eyes start with a COMPLETE EASY TM and rinse COMPLETE MPS rinse delivers optimal levels of PHMB* and EDTA Together they deliver a broad spectrum antimicrobial performance Enhanced EDTA levels help to: disrupt cell membranes, facilitating disinfection bind iron to help prevent further bacterial growth COMPLETE MPS also stops microbes by eliminating their food source The high ionic strength phosphate buffer helps remove proteins from the lens surface Naturally-occurring tear electrolytes, Na + and K +, neutralise the lens surface to help prevent further protein deposits RINSE * Polyhexamethylene biguanide Ethylenediamine tetra acetate
5 Healthier eyes start with a COMPLETE disinfecting soak The COMPLETE EASY TM and rinse routine includes a 6-hour disinfecting soak for greater reassurance Average survivors per lens (log units) COMPLETE MPS produces effective contact lens disinfection 1 All microbes reduced by at least 5-log units Fails FDA standard Pass FDA standard >0.33 >0.67 >0.46 >0.08 >0.17 The COMPLETE MPS system gives a % reduction in the number of microbes This equates to less than 10 organisms per lens 0 S. marcescens S. aureus P. aeruginosa C. albicans F. solani SOAK RINSE Enhanced removal of Acanthamoeba with the COMPLETE EASY TM routine Regimen testing shows a 4-log reduction 2 Reference: 1. AMO data on file. Regimen: rinse for 10 seconds, 6 hour soak, rinse for 10 seconds. 2. AMO data on file. Regimen: rub, rinse and soak.
6 AMO: supporting your efforts to reinforce the importance of contact lens hygiene Studies show that up to 80% of patients do not comply with their optician s instructions 1 Reinforcement of care procedures at follow-up visits reduced contamination of lenses, cases and care products from 50% to 6% 2 AMO your partner in ensuring your patients get a COMPLETE lens clean A full range of patient support materials are available: An easy-to-follow, comprehensive patient brochure An easy-to-follow patient training fl ipchart for your staff to use A simple credit-card sized appointment card to reinforce the basic lens care hygiene steps A high quality starter kit with bag and educational leafl et A new website including consumer tips on healthy lens care.
