(PRWEB) November 29, 2017 -- Utilizing patented technology, BeautiEyes™ soft lenses widen the palpebral apertures creating a more youthful and alert appearance. This unique design has a rotationally symmetric aperture widening zone in the lens periphery. Lenses can be lathed or molded in HEMA or silicone hydrogel materials. During lens development studies, 80% of selected test subjects achieved on average 10-20% wider apertures with BeautiEyes. Two U.S. patents, one Chinese patent, Singapore patent and Russian patent have been issued along with additional U.S. and foreign patent applications pending. CE Marking has also been issued for trade in Europe.
A millimeter ruler is a simple screening tool to predict the lens effectiveness. Key market research revealed survey respondents would be willing to pay more and even switch lens brands for this new technology that provides a visible benefit for wearers.

BeautiEyes lenses may also extend the lifetime use of lenses by wearers into their presbyopic years by providing a more youthful appearance. It's an exciting new business opportunity to have a breakout product with patent protection and CE marking”, Dr. Richard Clompus, Senior Advisor for BeautiEyes Business Development.
