US-based Visioneering Technologies Inc (VTI) has appointed Gelflex as its Australia and New Zealand distribution partner for the NaturalVue multifocal 1-day contact lenses. Gelflex, through Ophthalmic Instrument Company, is now New Zealand’s exclusive NaturalVue distributor.

“We are thrilled to provide our customers with VTI’s portfolio of products,” said David Masel, managing director, Gelflex. “The unique extended depth of focus design of the NaturalVue multifocal provides practitioners the ability to serve a wide range of patient types – from progressing myopes to advanced presbyopia – all with one lens.”

Masel said the product has been well received by practitioners and fits in perfectly with Gelflex’s suite of offerings. “By partnering with VTI, we now offer our customers another way to differentiate their practices and reflect our ongoing commitment to investing in and supporting the specialty lens industry,” he added.
