Art Optical to Feature New K-Cone Fitting System at GKC

Art Optical Contact Lens, Inc. will be re-launching its’ successful Art Keratoconic System (AKS®) at the Global Keratoconus Congress in Vegas, January 26-28.

The new and improved AKS system, featuring updated tamper-evident packaging, easy-to use fitting charts, and the Optimum family of GP lens materials, will be on display at the Art Optical exhibit and available for purchase at the discounted price of $100 (regularly $150) during show hours. AKS will also be the chosen topic of discussion at a breakfast seminar to be held during the GKC at 7:00 am on Saturday morning. Practitioners attending the breakfast seminar will have a chance to win one of 2 AKS Systems to be given away at the conclusion of the session.

Derived from Art Optical’s philosophy that each case of Keratoconus should be fit according to the shape and position of the cone, AKS provides a practical means of managing Keratoconic patients according to their specific needs through the use of corneal topography or diagnostic fitting sets.

Established in 1931, Art Optical Contact Lens, Inc. is the worlds’ leading GP lens manufacturer. The company specializes in custom contact lenses made to exacting standards for the correction of refractive errors including myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism, and presbyopia, as well as custom contact lenses by practitioner prescription for pediatric patients, and those with post corneal trauma, pathological concerns, and ocular disease.
