X-Cel Specialty Contacts Expands Distribution of Paragon CRT®, Specialty GP’s, and Custom Soft into Canada

X-Cel Specialty Contacts, manufacturers of Extreme H2O® disposables, custom soft and specialty GP’s, announces a strategic alliance with Paragon Vision Sciences, Inc., to distribute Paragon CRT, a therapeutic contact lens that gently reshapes the cornea overnight to temporarily correct nearsightedness, in Canada. This alliance is the result of a careful assessment of the corneal reshaping market and X-Cel Specialty Contacts ability to provide long term value to Canadian eye care practitioners who are currently fitting, or who are interested in expanding their practice with specialty contact lenses.

X-Cel Specialty Contacts will provide in-person and online educational opportunities on CRT and specialty contact lens products for eye care practitioners. Practitioner education, a focus of X-Cel Specialty Contacts, combined with Paragon’s vast collection of consumer educational material on myopia will enable X-Cel to meet customer needs in the region.

Paragon CRT will celebrate its thirteenth FDA approval anniversary in June. More than 70% of CRT lenses are prescribed for children between the ages of eight and eighteen. Practitioners worldwide are focused on CRT as an accepted standard of care for consumers who want to avoid wearing glasses or daytime contacts, are underage or averse to surgery, are soft contact lens drop-outs, or suffer from end-of-day discomfort or dryness. CRT addresses all of these needs and is easy to use and maintain.
