Medennium - SmartPLUG

SmartPLUG from Medennium is designed to fit a wide range of punctum sizes and provide comfortable and effective long-term occlusion of the punctum. Made of an innovative thermosensitive, hydrophobic acrylic polymer, SmartPLUG conforms to the exact shape and size of the punctum for a precise, comfortable fit. Unlike rigid silicone plugs with exposed heads, SmartPLUG has no protruding cap that can irritate and cause discomfort.

  • SmartPLUG is a thin, rigid ∼ 6 mm acrylic rod in length and .4mm in diameter before placement into the undilated punctum at room temperature or topical anesthesia is optional.
  • Once inside the punctum and in contact with body temperature, SmartPLUG shrinks in length and expands in width, reshaping itself into a soft, gel-like plug.
  • SmartPLUG accommodates to fit a range of puncta, eliminating the need for measurement and stocking different size plugs.
  • Once in place, SmartPLUG does not protrude from the punctum, making it more aesthetically pleasing for the patient.
  • The material and design of SmartPLUG eliminates the need for the head and anchor found on rigid silicone plugs, decreasing the potential for irritation of sensitive tissues.
  • SmartPLUG cannot be rubbed out. If desired, it can be removed by irrigation.
  • SmartPLUG simplifies inventory management and eliminates product waste.
