    KBCo EOS and Fusion II

    have a patient who loves these lenses, dislikes newer freeforms (has tried autograph as well as hoya), guessing they are discontinued.

    what types of designs are these and/or what current designs are most similar?

    thanks!

    I remember the Fusion 2 (I tried it about 15 years ago) as a moderately long corridor, very soft design, that might appeal more to hyperopes than myopes. The EOS was designed for +8 base wraps.

    An older Hoya lens like the ECP would be close in design/performance. I don't see why a free-form manufactured lens would cause any problems, unless they're moderate to high plus on plus.
