punctum plugs



There are many products  which I  read about and  just had to  look at pictures and  imagine  them  and sometimes  did not even have  a picture of one  Eye punctum plugs are one such item.

Dry Eye Products — Punctal Plugs, Collagen Plugs, Tear Tester, and More


FCI Ophthalmics is a world leader in the development of ophthalmic surgical devices and dry eye products for the treatment of punctal occlusion. With a wide range of highly effective dry eye products, including temporary collagen punctal plugs and absorbable long-terms plugs, punctum gauges, punctum dilators, and a dry eye measurement technique that yields objective, repeatable results, FCI Ophthalmics is proud to help physicians worldwide better help their patients resolve dry eye issues.

Snug Plugs™

Snug Plugs™ are designed to provide effective punctal occlusion for the treatment of dry eye. Like all products from FCI Ophthalmics, Snug Plugs™ have been painstakingly researched, and they are manufactured from the most advanced materials. Snug Plugs™ are made of medical grade silicone and are preloaded in a stretched position, returning to their natural shape when released in the punctum. Before removing the inserter, it should be verified that the plug has been released into the punctum.
