CELEBRATING 35 YEARS N estled among the tall pines and mountain peaks of the Pacific Northwest is a custom contact lens manufacturer with a refresh- ing view toward serving eyecare professionals. Since its founding in 1981, the goal and mantra of Valley Contax has been "Dedicated to Your Success" — that is, dedicated to the success of our customers. This forward-thinking approach puts our focus in the right place — not simply on selling lenses, but rather on striving for excellence in product innovation and cus- tomer experience. As a result, we are more than just a supplier to our customers — we're their partner. The Custom Stable Scleral e Valley Contax product lineup includes our stel- lar line of corneal GPs and our flagship product, the Custom Stable™, a line of scleral lenses that can fit virtually any cornea — regular or irregular. One of the first modern sclerals to market, these lenses smoothly vault the cornea and create a natural tear chamber that provides maximum comfort and hydration. Successful fits result in exceptional visual acuity and a wear time of 12 to 14 hours. e Custom Stable comes in three variations: Prime, Elite, and Aurora. e spherical Custom Stable Prime is the base lens and is an excellent choice for corneas with little or no toricity. e Custom Stable Elite is our most popular lens in the series. is go-to lens can be customized by having toricity added to both the front and back surfaces, allowing it to fit almost any cornea. e Custom Stable Aurora is a front-surface multi-focal with the same back surface as the Custom Stable Elite. is lens achieves all of the demanding vi- sion distances of today's presbyopes. It is a design that uses a dominant (distance center)/non-dominant (near center) system that works in unison with the patientand accommodative demands. e Custom Stable was used in a clinical study per- formed by Ferris State University Michigan College of Optometry's Vision Research Institute. e study, which focused on the use of scleral lenses on normal corneas, found that 77% of participants significantly improved their vision and maintained a high level of comfort while wearing the Custom Stable. In addition, after wearing the Custom Stable for a month, the ma- jority of participants responded that they were either satisfied or very satisfied.
